No command line help

Postby merik » 12 Sep 2005 15:25

I am using the latest build from the nightly builds.
On windows xp.

Everytime I run vlc --help I get a window with no help.

What am I missing ?

you can see the basic idea here if you need it:
http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/VLC_ ... -line_help

but anyway I think there were some changes relating to that recently.. will you try this:

Code: Select all

vlc --help > output.txt

On windows it now makes a vlc-help.txt file when you do vlc --help

While that is working, I can't get any output from -vvv?
How do I see the debug output?
