Set size/position dialog at startup

Is it possible to add parameters on commande line (Args) to set VLC dialog position (X/Y) and VLC dialog size (400pxl/300pxl).
It'll be easier for us to remote VLC without using ActiveX.
Thanks a lot.
PS: it shall be nothing to do for U and it's hard for us, believe me.

I think that the next version will be able to do this. It'll automatically save the size and position of the interface upon closing. Unfortunately CloudStalker can't provide a link to the nightly builds (so that you can test this) because he's using the Wii for internet and can't highlight, copy & paste,. Someone will provide the link though.

If you have a fresh VLC build I can test it (dual screen/hide in taskbar...).
I'm waiting for the link... thanks !

OK, I try latest version and it dont work well. I had a big probleme with WxWidget (I need to close and my windows session a lot of time). All my desktop was fixed (element not repaint) like a windows freez. And a popup have the title "WxWidget...".
So, when I open VLC, dialog always show at the same position and not at the last position. OnCLose should not save last position of dialog.

This functionality doesn't work on the nightly build version. Can you do a little something before the release ?
