Hi,

I've been wondering if it were possible to pass command line parameters through playlist file, i.e. I would like to achieve following:
vlc myplaylistfile.xxx
which would be the same as, let say:
vlc myfile.avi --access-filter timeshift

thanks in advance

That's called a shell script (or a batch file on Windows). Passing options through playlist files is not allowed because it would open security holes.
