I tried the etix MSI package mentioned above but when adding it to a GPO I receive the following message:

 

Add operation failed. Unable to extract deployment information from the package. Run validation on the package to ensure that the package is correct.

 

I too would like a copy of the MSI that the op created.

Just in case some people are still looking for VLC msi, no need. Just download the latest version of VLC.exe

Create a new GPO to launch a script at start-up.

 

Here is the script to install VLC properly (.bat):

 

@echo off

 

 

if not exist "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" (goto instsp) else (goto End)

 

 

:instsp

"\\yoursharefolder\VLC-2.0.6"\vlc-2.0.6-win32.exe "--no-qt-privacy-ask" "--no-qt-updates-notif" /L=1033 /S

 

 

:End

 

 

Endlocal

 

Voilà

Unfortunately it isn't that simple. I just tried what you suggested in a VM and it doesn't work.

 

VLC's NSIS installer won't recognise the --no-qt-privacy-ask and --no-qt-updates-notif switches because they are specific to VLC Media Player.

 

I'll post my modified installer once I have tested it a bit more. :)

Well it works...

-Create a batch file

-Copy the code

-Create a new GPO and apply it to a test OU for exemple. If you run the command manually it won't work because it needs to be run in silent mode !

-Move your computer to the test OU

-gpupdate and restart.

 

Of course you need to adapt the code to your network.

 

But it works for sure. I installed it that way on the entire network (500 machines)
