Run Script on VLC startup?

Postby doakey3 » 23 Dec 2015 08:00

I want to write a lua script that reads a text file in the same directory as the movie file that gives instructions for parts of the movie to skip or mute so I can censor parts of movies for kids.

I need the extension to be on by default, but I can't seem to find any way to do this.

Interface scripts can be made to run on start-up, so if the script would work fine as an interface script then that is how you could do it. Might be safest to simply re-encode or re-package the file, though.
