Keep window open after playback

[Blaster]

VLC 1.1.12
Mac OS 10.7.2

After a video file is done playing in VLC, the playback window closes by itself. How do I prevent this from happening? When a video reaches the end, I just want it to stay on the last frame and the window to remain open. I don't want the video to close, repeat, or resize. I also do not use playlists. I just want the video to stay at the end of the timeline and remain open. Is this possible?

I don't think this is possible (if someone else know, please correct me if I'm wrong).

Of all my years using VLC, I've never come across a parameter for what you're asking.

I just want VLC Player to behave more like QuickTime Player and not close the file when it finishes playing.

Patch is welcome. This isn't not possible with VLC at the moment.
