I downloaded MPEG Streamclip for video editing and do not wish to uninstall it. But now it is the default application for .wmv files. I already went through other options to change the default video player to VLC but when I try to do it this message is what returns:
'The item is either locked or damaged, or in a folder you don’t have permission to modify (error code -61).'
- Solution 3: Play MPG with a powerful MPG Player for Mac - VLC. Apart from using the video converter and Perian you can also use a universal media player such as VLC player to play various types of file formats such as MPG on Mac. The VLC player works seamlessly on Mac and can be used to convert MPG format files into a format of your choice.

This file is a DVD for an online class and would prefer not to constantly go back to the DVD folder in Finder and 'Open With' VLC. I read some tips about resetting some files but they were for Leopard and Tiger.
