What is the command line text to quit vlc player?
I can start vlc and play or transcode from the command line but can not quit the application.
Please help.

Place vlc:quit at the end of the command line.
quit vlc

Let's say my vlc app is in c:/vlc.exe.
When i bring up the command prompt window in WindowsXP and type in "vlc xyz.mp3" it starts up and plays the mp3 file.
Now I want to stop it and close vlc.
Typing "vlc:quit" or "vlc quit" does not work.
