How do I maximize player on startup?

[davek]

I searched around on the forum, and couldn't seem to find a way that worked.

My issue is: when I start VLC it sizes to the video. I click to maximize, it's now the size of my screen-- perfect.

How do I set it so VLC always opens maximized, without the interim click?

(Maximized window-- NOT full screen)

FYI, I'm using 0.8.6d Windows.

Thanks for the help-- great product!
