     wchar_t psz_wpath[MAX_PATH];
-    if( GetModuleFileName( NULL, psz_wpath, MAX_PATH ) )
+    if( VirtualQuery(system_Init, &mbi, sizeof(mbi) ) )
     {
-        WideCharToMultiByte( CP_UTF8, 0, psz_wpath, -1,
-                             psz_path, MAX_PATH, NULL, NULL );
+        HMODULE hMod = (HMODULE) mbi.AllocationBase;
+        if( GetModuleFileName( hMod, psz_wpath, MAX_PATH ) )

Why don't you use GetModuleHandle("libvlc.dll"), or GetModuleHandleEx
with GET_MODULE_HANDLE_EX_FLAG_FROM_ADDRESS ? It would be more
readable that way.
