If no-one knows the answer, then no-one will reply.

So the problem is streaming mp4 from your desktop to your pda?

Or are you just trying to play an mp4 on your pda?

Modify your shortcut to vlc to include:

As for the normal volume:

Settings->Prefences->Audio.
Default audio volume: Change that value to your liking...

Not sure about the other bits...

When you install vlc you can associate vlc with all file types if you like, just install it again and check the file types you want.

Open VLC.
Setings->Prefences.

Click Advanced Options.

Input / Codecs->Access modules->File

Caching value in ms: 300

Lower it to 50 and see if that helps.

You can also use the --file-caching option, e.g.
vlc --file-caching=50 file.mp3

--sub-track <integer> Choose subtitles track

I've tested the following in a dos prompt and it works:

C:\progra~1\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --sub-track=1 "[V-A]_Daphne_in_the_Brilliant_Blue_01_[09EC772E].mkv"

There's an "allow only one instance" option that you can set.

Open VLC, goto Settings->Preferences.
Click the Advanced Options tickbox.
Goto Advanced, Other.
Tick "Allow only one running instance"
Click Save and close VLC.

It'll now work the way you want.
