How do i make it so when i open a new media file supported by VLC (well, that i have set VLC to be the default player for) to automatically open in the existing VLC window, instead of making a new one ?

Also, is it possible to have the sound setting saved ? whenever i close the program and open it again the sound is at 50%, regardless of what i had set it to when i closed the program

Open the preferences
Select the "advanced options" checkbox
Expand "Advanced" (directly under Stream output)
Select "Other" - on that pane will be "Allow only one running instance"
