solved

go to C:\Users\Luke\AppData\Roaming\vlc

And open the vlcrc file with notepad++

find the line "#qt-start-minimized=" and delete the # and add a 1 to the end and save it. should look like this qt-start-minimized=1

then find the line "#extraintf=" and delete the # and add "http" on the end , like this extraintf=http

dont forget to save it

Now create a shortcut to VLC and drop the shortcut in the startup folder.

Hope this helps someone.
