VLC opens a window when running a LabVIEW EXE

[ML927]

Dear all,

I am trying to play a video in LabVIEW using VLC following these examples:

Everything works perfectly fine when I run my application on LabVIEW. When I compile an EXE and run my application, the video is not displayed on my front panel anymore but in an external VLC window.

Everything works fine when I run an EXE of the compiled examples.

I didn't do any change to the example code in my application and I cannot see any difference.

Unfortunately, I cannot share the whole code but I can still can some parts if needed (just ask).

Does anyone have any idea about what can cause that inconsistent behavior?

Thank you in advance.

Solution : it seems that resetting the default values for all front panel controls was the cause. I am not quite sure why but removing the invoke node solved the problem.
