VLC Media Library

[lrockwell]

So we have an in house IPTV system so users can watch TV and I have found how to modify the vlc media library file. I have now down that but is has to replace the default local file created by vlc. The file is called ml.xspf and it is located in
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/org.videolan.vlc/ml.xspf

Does anyone have a good idea on how to make it so that casper can delete the old file and insert the file I have made?

Thanks for any help

If you create an install package for that file with Composer, and deploy it with a Policy that has the FEU (Fill Existing Users) flag set, it should replace any existing version of the file.

So I tried that and here is my screenshot of the pkg file I built and it doesnt install the file in the current user location

Here is what I did for the package

Try building the installer as a .dmg instead of a .pkg and see if that will allow Casper to overwrite the existing file.

THAT WORKED! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!

Glad to hear it. I believe .dmg is the preferred format for Composer created packages to be deployed via Casper these days, and this looks to be an example of why.
