Disable autoplay

[minimidgy]

I want to stop VLC from automatically playing when I open a file. I have looked through the preferences and could not find anything. I'm using version 0.9.9a on Mac OS X Tiger (10.4)

There is an option in the advanced preferences to disable this behavior. Go to "Preferences", click on "All" at the bottom of the window and expand this path: "Interface" -> "Main Interfaces" -> "macosx" using the triangles on the left. Uncheck the respective option, save the settings and you are ready to go.
