Help with VLC command line switches

Postby MattWFISD » 20 May 2009 20:02

We have always used the below code to play a video using VLC. Can anyone tell me why it doesn't work anymore and a possible solution?

Code: Select all

--intf wx dvdsimple://C:\Program Files\WordSmart\Video Tutorial\VIDEO_TS\ :dvdread-caching=20000 -f
Also, we are using version 0.8.4a . Thanks much in advance.

It still didn't do anything. Whenever I run either one of those it opens VLC but doesn't open the video.

I actually figured it out.

i used the following: % vlc --fullscreen VOB_01_1.VOB. We are using a novell network and it required me to put a parameter in it of where the file was located. Thanks for all the help though.
