If this doesn't work, you might try setting to
"./Contents/MacOS/revvideograbber.bundle
Relative paths can be handy here.
Of course on Windows and Linux you'll have to store this somewhere
else, as there is no bundle. I don't think there's any way you'll be
able to distribute a single file on these platforms: the videograbber
would have to be added to the core engine for that.
You can always create a "Support Files" folder, or something like that
alongside the app- no need to leave the external naked, and you can
throw other resources such as upgradable stacks, images, audio, etc in
there also.
