IIRC typing help should list the commands.

True, but that's useful for someone who already knows how it works and wants to look up some reference. I've gone over the -help several times but don't see simple stuff like "how to stop playing", for instance.IIRC typing help should list the commands.

AFAIK dummy interface has no control options. So rc or telnet interface might suit you better.

Somewhat over my head, technicallyAFAIK dummy interface has no control options. So rc or telnet interface might suit you better.
Guess I'll stick to GUI in VLC and mocp in CLI. Thanks again for your replies
