Hi all !
I woul like to use VLM via a configuration file in a way like this:

vlc -I telnet --vlm-conf=filename.txt

It work fine for me... but I do not know how to add commands to the same instance of VLC using a new config file.
I mean, for example, if I want to stop the video that I'm streaming via VLM how can I do that ?
If I try with a new config file a new instance of vlc start and it take no effect on the previous one.

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks in advance

Francesco

Ok... I spend a couple of hours looking inside this forum and I discovered that my question is old... see for example:
viewtopic.php?t=28657

If I understood well to send multiple config file to vlc the only way is an extarnal tool to manage my script.
Is this correct ?
