title: FileNotFoundError: Could not find module 'libvlc.dll'
body: <p>Using Python 3.8.0, 64 bit</p>
  
  <p>OS: Windows 10 Pro, Version 10.0.15063 Build 15063, 64 bit</p>
  
  <p>VLC, 3.0.8 Vetinari, 64 bit</p>
  
  <p>Have installed Python VLC Bindings through PIP</p>
  
  <p>The path to VLC and the direct path to libvlc.dll are both in my “PYTHONPATH” and “PATH” environment variables.</p>
  
  <p>I am running my script via the Windows command prompt.</p>
  
  <p>The script i'm trying to run is one line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import vlc
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is what the command prompt is telling me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "001.py", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
      import vlc
    File "C:\Program Files\Python38\lib\site-packages\vlc.py", line 207, in &lt;module&gt;
      dll, plugin_path  = find_lib()
    File "C:\Program Files\Python38\lib\site-packages\vlc.py", line 163, in find_lib
      dll = ctypes.CDLL(libname)
    File "C:\Program Files\Python38\lib\ctypes\__init__.py", line 369, in __init__
      self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
  FileNotFoundError: Could not find module 'libvlc.dll'. Try using the full path with constructor syntax.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm new to Python, any help would be greatly appreciated!</p>
