Show video on second screen (-I wx not working)
Posted: 11 Mar 2008 14:03
Hi,
I have a dual monitor setup and a nvida card.
I'd like to start vlc from the command line and show the video in fullscreen on the second monitor.
What I got working:
Using this command, vlc starts in fullscreen:
When I do not use the command line, I can get it to work with these settings:
1. Preferences -> Video -> use Fullscreen video output
2. Preferences -> Video -> Output modules -> DirectX -> Advanced options -> Refresh list -> use \\.\Display2
3. Preferences -> Interface -> Main interface -> use wxWidgets interface module
4. Preferences -> Interface -> Main interface -> wxWidgets -> do nut use Embed video in interface
The problem is that I fail to set all these parameters on the command line:
Here's what I tried:
VLC is starting in fullscreen on Display1. I checked if all these settings were made in the GUI and I discovered that setting 1,2 and 4 have been set but setting 3 (the -I wx) is not set.
Can you give me a hint what to do now?
Thanks in advance!
