I'm trying to make a .bat file that will start a VLC Multicast stream and in Minimal View. So far i have that working fine but for some reason i cannot get the command prompt to close automagically

Has anyone else experience this?

I've tried it all of these ways below with no success of the cmd window closing.

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
CALL vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2
EXIT

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
CALL vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2
EXIT /B

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2
EXIT

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2
EXIT /B

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2
tskill cmd*

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Figured it out. This works.

@echo off
cd c:\program files\videolan\vlc
start /b vlc.exe -vvv udp://@229.1.1.7:5071 --qt-display-mode=2

thanks, it works for me
