That path is actually the path to VLC (\\serverx4\apps\AV Server\System\VLC\VLC\vlc.exe) telling it to load \\Serverx4\apps\AV Server\System\All_Video_Files\Grim Up North Clip 1.vob. You need to put it as just a link to the file, not the player too, so it would just be "\\Serverx4\apps\AV Server\System\All_Video_Files\Grim Up North Clip 1.vob"

Hope this helps, null :)
