========== WINDOWS INSTALLATION GUIDE ==============

In this tutorial:

• YOUR_EASY_PHP_INSTALL_DIR is the dir path where you have installed EasyPhp
• IP_ADDRESS is the ip address of the pc where you have installed EasyPhp

6) Search for line below (+/- line 58)

Listen 127.0.0.1:80

and change it to

Listen 0.0.0.0:80

(if you want, you can bind apache only for 1 network adapter change 0.0.0.0 in you IP address of the network adapter. Ex 192.168.1.3)

7) Search for line below (+/- line 119)

#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

10) Right click on systray icon of EasyPhp, configuration->PHP Extension. Check on php_pdo_sqlite, then Apply. Restart easyphp again

11) Rename the file YOUR_EASY_PHP_INSTALL_DIR/www/vlc-shares/application/configs/vlc-shares.config.ini_WINDOWS to vlc-shares.config.ini

12) Open the file YOUR_EASY_PHP_INSTALL_DIR/www/vlc-shares/application/configs/vlc-shares.configs.ini (the one you have just renamed)

13) Now edit the file with your config (more info about this step here).
Mandatory changes are:

• Line 47: if you use apache on port != 80, set your port in apache_altPort
• Line 59: set your path to vlc.exe (use / in the path, not )
• Line 154-188: set your collection id/label/path (Path must end with / )

14) Open file onlinemedia.xml in your WiiMc directory and add the line below

just before , where IP_ADDRESS = the ip address of pc where you install vlc-share.

15) Start WiiMc, go to Online Media tab, select the new “VLC-Share Collections” link and enjoy vlc-shares

[Note]
If you have configuration problem, give a look to system test page. Open your browser and go to
http://IP_ADDRESS/vlc-shares/public/
Also, while vlc is playing, if you enable pcstream feature in config file, you will get in test page a link to html controls page where preview and stream controls are available through browser.
