Running VLC in full screen mode on a PC and with extraintf RC also running on the same PC

1 - Is there anyway to have the RC interface hidden... running in the background... and still be able to send commands to it?

2 - Once VLC is running is there anyway to exit and restart the RC Interface w/o launching another instance of VLC?

thanks for any help !

Try this:

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I rc --rc-quiet --rc-host=127.0.0.1:5800
