Comment 22 for bug 805303

Holger, try purging all configuration files for anki (I believe located in your home folder in .anki) and then try the fix again. I know some people said that was necessary to fix the problem in VLC. My config problems were already purged (really I had uninstalled and deleted everything remotely related to Anki except for my deck and media files in an attempt to fix this earlier), so that might be a step I'm missing in my fix. If that does work for you would you post the update to the Anki Google group for me as well? And if it doesn't fix the problem, I'll try to think of something else.
