The VideoLAN Forums

Greetings

Can I hide the VLC (cone) logo that appears when opening a file (video/audio/whatever)?
I'd prefer not to show anything.

Thank you


PS. Sorry if this topic may have been discussed again,
but the search function of the forum doesn't seem to work.

ActiveX? You cannot.

No, I'm not talking about the ActiveX plugin
but the media player itself (vlc.exe).

By default, VLC doesn't show a cone.

But it does!!
It shows this
for a second or less, before it show the file.

This is not the default preferences.

You're right - I noticed that that -for some strange reason (since I hadn't tweaked anything)-
in Tools>Preferences many items were showing duplicated...
So, I pressed the "Reset VLC media player preferences and cache files" shortcut from Start Menu
and it fixed the problem.

Thank you.

Kool.
