Is it possible to configure VLC to start with subtitles ON instead of having to tap Shift+S every time a video plays or loops?

Thank you for your post. It helped me solve a challenge, too.

There is always debug messages, with verbosity to 2. Merci, Jean-Baptiste. Your tip helped me arrive at a command argument that works. See my last post at http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=101964#wrap I also found one error using your suggestion and posted a question about it in th...

I've got VLC streaming audio via HTML working from the GUI and from a command line. When I set Tools | Messages to Verbosity 2 using the GUI I saw this error message and, while streaming is working, I'm always suspicious of errors so I wonder if anyone can tell me how to fix it. main error: Invalid ...

It would be something like vlc dshow:// :dshow-vdev= :dshow-adev=FrontMic :sout=#transcode{vcodec=none,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=1,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=raw,dst=:8080/} :sout-keep Okay, so I guess I figured out how to determine the device ID (see it in the drop-down list of capture devices or...

Last night, figuring I might not receive any responses, I looked into VLC's Preferences | All Settings section. It would appear that one could configure VLC'...

Thank you! Where does one find the proper value for the dshow-adev= parameter? I figure that every sound card or capture device is unique in this regard. In this case it's a Xonar card with multiple ins and outs, so now the trick is to determine their DirectShow names, right?

I need help writing a command line to match the streaming setup I've established using the Windows VLC GUI. Other volunteers at our church could never follow the steps needed by the GUI so I need to create a batch file that'll just run VLC with all streaming configuration baked in. Are there any gur...

I can configure VLC 2 for streaming in Windows 7 but I need to create a command line version for other volunteers who would be baffled by the GUI. In other words, I need to put an icon on the desktop that anyone can run and it'll start VLC in the proper streaming mode. Capture mode is DirectShow Vid...
