Possible to run minimal instance of VLC from commandline?

[wrybread]

I'm trying to launch multiple instances of VLC at various positions around a large monitor, with specific sizes. I want there to be no menus whatsoever, just the video area.

Currently I'm not seeing a way to prevent the menus from appearing from commandline. All I'm seeing from commandline is the --width and --height tag.

Is there a way to launch a minimal interface from commandline?

Is there a way to specify its position?

Thanks for any help.

Well I found some more options in the help file produced from commandline with this command:

vlc --advanced --help

It looks like the option --no-video-deco might be what I'm looking for to get a minimal instance, and --video-x and --video-y might be intended to position the window. But none of those parameters seem to have any effect...

Are those working for anyone else? I'm using VLC 9.9.2 Grishenko on Windows.

--video-x and --video-y only work if you disable embedded.
--no-embedded-video
