The VideoLAN Forums

On windows, you have the –no-qt-updates-notif parameter to launch vlc without checking for updates.
I'm searching on MacOS how to get the same result. I have a script to launch VNC from terminal and i have all the switches i need, except the one to disable the updates.
Even in the main config file (/Users/xxx/Library/Preferences/org.videolan.vlc/vlcrc i can't even find where the setting is written when you disable the updates in the menu using the VLC GUI.
anyone an idea?

Hi, I don't see any option to do that. Don't hesite to open a ticket for that, or ask on https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues/20582.

Sparkle is used for autoupdates though, so you might be able to disable the autoupdates with the options there: https://sparkle-project.org/documentati ... omization/

You need to set in org.videolan.vlc.plist to false.
