Exit VLC at the end of the playlist

I use the Allow only one running instance and Repeat the current item as standard preferences.

I would also like to use a Exit VLC at end of the Playlist option.

Is it already in there and I have missed it? The application has tons of neat features.

Thanx :)

Use the special item vlc:quit to exit vlc at any given time

Awesome ...

Now, instead of a creating a shortcut like this ...

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" "D:\mer2003.mpeg"
I can use ...

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" "D:\mer2003.mpeg" "vlc:quit"
and the entire application will end.
I find this most useful when I provide shortcuts for small children to use.

I thank you for your response. :)
