I want to create a batch file in Windows 7 64 bit to do the following
Start VlC minimized, and then play all the MP3 files in a given folder. And when it reaches the last MP3 file, I'd like it to loop back to the beginning continuously.
The line below will open VLC, and play the MP3 file noted. But it does not start minimized.
START "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --qt-start-minimized" "D:\Library\Song01.mp3"
If I change the line to this below, it gives me an error message that it cannot find the file to play. And of course it does not minimize the window.
START "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --qt-start-minimized" "D:\Library\*.mp3"
Once I can get this to function, I will add a second line in the batch file to run another program, where VLC will then create backgkround music.
So, can anyone advise me the string to run VLC minimized, and play all the songs in a specified folder, and continually loop back when the end of the list is reached?
Thanks for the help -
