The VideoLAN Forums

Hi,
I'm trying to shift the position of the video window on the screen. I've tried altering the "Video X/Y Coordinate" under Video -Advanced Options, but this doesn't seem to do anything (although all the other options in this section seem to work). Is there something I'm missing? Incidentally, I would ideally like to do this from the command line if possible.
I'm running XP service pack 2.
Regards,
Charles

Oh okay, I've found the command line way of doing it....I didn't realize that "vlc --longhelp --advanced" didn't let you view all the options, but I found a listing of all the command line options in the VideoLan Wiki.

I've found that "vlc --video-x <integer> --video-y <integer> <filename>" works if you open it with an http interface ("-I http"), but doesn't work if you use the standard interface. That's fine for me, because my application will use the http interface.
