If you look for help, on a particular module, use
You can also use this to get more exhaustive list:
  vlc -p module --advanced
vlc -H
 
If you look for help, on a particular module, you can also use
  vlc -p module --advanced --help-verbose
<code>--help-verbose</code> explains things. Omit this option if too much output is generated
 
To view this without leaving the command-line in Windows, use the following command (assuming you installed it in the default folder):
more "{{VLC folder|windows}}\vlc-help.txt"
This trick uses the command-line command <code>more</code> to show the file screen-by-screen. Pressing spacebar will advance the output a screen at a time, and pressing enter will advance the output one line at a time.

Audio
These options allow you to modify the behavior of the audio subsystem, and to add audio filters which can be used for post processing or visual effects (spectrum analyzer, etc.). Enable these filters here, and configure them in the "audio filters" modules section.
      --audio, --no-audio        Enable audio (default enabled)
          You can completely disable the audio output. The audio decoding stage
          will not take place, thus saving some processing power. (default
          enabled)
      --volume=<integer [0 .. 1024]>
                                Default audio volume
          You can set the default audio output volume here, in a range from 0
          to 1024.
      --volume-step=<integer [0 .. 1024]>
                                Audio output volume step
          The step size of the volume is adjustable using this option, in a
          range from 0 to 1024.
      --aout-rate=<integer>      Audio output frequency (Hz)
          You can force the audio output frequency here. Common values are -1
          (default), 48000, 44100, 32000, 22050, 16000, 11025, 8000.
      --hq-resampling, --no-hq-resampling
                                High quality audio resampling (default
                                enabled)
          This uses a high quality audio resampling algorithm. High quality
          audio resampling can be processor intensive so you can disable it and
          a cheaper resampling algorithm will be used instead. (default enabled)
      --spdif, --no-spdif        Use S/PDIF when available (default disabled)
          S/PDIF can be used by default when your hardware supports it as well
          as the audio stream being played. (default disabled)
      --force-dolby-surround={0 (Auto), 1 (On), 2 (Off)}
                                Force detection of Dolby Surround
          Use this when you know your stream is (or is not) encoded with Dolby
          Surround but fails to be detected as such. Even if the stream is not
          actually encoded with Dolby Surround, turning on this option might
          enhance your experience, especially when combined with the Headphone
          Channel Mixer.
      --audio-desync=<integer>  Audio desynchronization compensation
          This delays the audio output. The delay must be given in
          milliseconds.This can be handy if you notice a lag between the video
          and the audio.
      --audio-replay-gain-mode={none,track,album}
                                Replay gain mode
          Select the replay gain mode
      --audio-replay-gain-preamp=<float>
                                Replay preamp
          This allows you to change the default target level (89 dB) for stream
          with replay gain information
      --audio-replay-gain-default=<float>
                                Default replay gain
          This is the gain used for stream without replay gain information
      --audio-replay-gain-peak-protection, --no-audio-replay-gain-peak-protection
                                Peak protection (default enabled)
          Protect against sound clipping (default enabled)
  -A, --aout=<string>            Audio output module
          This is the audio output method used by VLC. The default behavior is
          to automatically select the best method available.
      --audio-filter=<string>    Audio filters
          This adds audio post processing filters, to modify the sound
          rendering.
      --audio-visual=<string>    Audio visualizations
          This adds visualization modules (spectrum analyzer, etc.).


  Video

          Increasing the priority of the process will very likely improve your
          playing experience as it allows VLC not to be disturbed by other
          applications that could otherwise take too much processor time.
          However be advised that in certain circumstances (bugs) VLC could
          take all the processor time and render the whole system unresponsive
          which might require a reboot of your machine.

          for example if you associated VLC with some media types and you don't
          want a new instance of VLC to be opened each time you open a file in
          your file manager. This option will allow you to play the file with
          the already running instance or enqueue it.

VLC command-line help for Windows users about VLC media player
VLC-0-8-6 command-line help, VLC-0-9-x command-line help, VLC-1-0-x command-line help, VLC-1-1-x command-line help, VLC-2-1-x command-line help

Running the command

vlc --help

will create a .TXT file containing all the command-line options.

You can also use this to get more exhaustive list:

vlc -H

If you look for help, on a particular module, you can also use

vlc -p module --advanced --help-verbose

--help-verbose explains things. Omit this option if too much output is generated

To view this without leaving the command-line in Windows, use the following command (assuming you installed it in the default folder):

more "%PROGRAMFILES%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc-help.txt"

This trick uses the command-line command more to show the file screen-by-screen. Pressing spacebar will advance the output a screen at a time, and pressing enter will advance the output one line at a time.

Undocumented option:

-vv     "Verbose verbose". Verbose output (debug infos can be displayed by selecting "Debug logging" interface under View->Add Interface menu)

Here's the output of vlc -H of vlc-4.0.0-dev under Windows. If the text is too small, pressing Ctrl and + together in most browsers will increase the font size (reset with Ctrl and 0 together).

Usage: vlc [options] [stream] ...
You can specify multiple streams on the commandline.
They will be enqueued in the playlist.
The first item specified will be played first.

Options-styles:
  --option  A global option that is set for the duration of the program.
   -option  A single letter version of a global --option.
   :option  An option that only applies to the stream directly before it
            and that overrides previous settings.

Stream MRL syntax:
  [[access][/demux]://]URL[#[title][:chapter][-[title][:chapter]]]
  [:option=value ...]

  Many of the global --options can also be used as MRL specific :options.
  Multiple :option=value pairs can be specified.

URL syntax:
  file:///path/file              Plain media file
  http://host[:port]/file        HTTP URL
  ftp://host[:port]/file         FTP URL
  mms://host[:port]/file         MMS URL
  screen://                      Screen capture
  dvd://[device]                 DVD device
  vcd://[device]                 VCD device
  cdda://[device]                Audio CD device
  udp://[[<source address>]@[<bind address>][:<bind port>]]
                                 UDP stream sent by a streaming server
  vlc://pause:<seconds>          Pause the playlist for a certain time
  vlc://quit                     Special item to quit VLC

          If set to true, the bridge will discard all input elementary streams
          except if it doesn't receive data from another bridge-in. This can be
          used to configure a place holder stream when the real source breaks.
          Source and placeholder streams should have the same format.

          will only occur on I frames. This will remove artifacts on stream
          switching at the expense of a slightly longer delay, depending on the
          frequence of I frames in the streams.

 Network streams (SAP) (sap)
      --sap-addr=<string>        SAP multicast address
          The SAP module normally chooses itself the right addresses to listen
          to. However, you can specify a specific address.
      --sap-timeout=<integer>    SAP timeout (seconds)

          Assign a program number to each PMT. This requires "Set PID to ID of
          ES" to be enabled.
      --sout-ts-es-id-pid, --no-sout-ts-es-id-pid 
                                 Set PID to ID of ES
                                 (default disabled)
          Sets PID to the ID if the incoming ES. This is for use with
          --ts-es-id-pid, and allows having the same PIDs in the input and
          output streams.
      --sout-ts-muxpmt=<string>  Mux PMT (requires --sout-ts-es-id-pid)
          Define the pids to add to each pmt. This requires "Set PID to ID of

                                 Data alignment
                                 (default enabled)
          Enforces alignment of all access units on PES boundaries. Disabling
          this might save some bandwidth but introduce incompatibilities.
      --sout-ts-shaping=<integer> 
                                 Shaping delay (ms)
          Cut the stream in slices of the given duration, and ensure a constant
          bitrate between the two boundaries. This avoids having huge bitrate
          peaks, especially for reference frames.
      --sout-ts-use-key-frames, --no-sout-ts-use-key-frames 
                                 Use keyframes
                                 (default disabled)
          If enabled, and shaping is specified, the TS muxer will place the
          boundaries at the end of I pictures. In that case, the shaping
          duration given by the user is a worse case used when no reference
          frame is available. This enhances the efficiency of the shaping
          algorithm, since I frames are usually the biggest frames in the
          stream.
      --sout-ts-pcr=<integer>    PCR interval (ms)
          Set at which interval PCRs (Program Clock Reference) will be sent (in

          Delay the DTS (decoding time stamps) and PTS (presentation
          timestamps) of the data in the stream, compared to the PCRs. This
          allows for some buffering inside the client decoder.

                                 (default disabled)
          By default the dummy interface plugin will start a DOS command box.
          Enabling the quiet mode will not bring this command box but can also
          be pretty annoying when you want to stop VLC and no video window is
          open.

 VBI and Teletext decoder (zvbi)
      --vbi-page=<integer [0 .. 7995392]> 
                                 Teletext page

                                 Teletext alignment
          You can enforce the teletext position on the video (0=center, 1=left,
          2=right, 4=top, 8=bottom, you can also use combinations of these
          values, eg. 6 = top-right).
      --vbi-text, --no-vbi-text  Teletext text subtitles
                                 (default disabled)

 H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC encoder (x264) (x264)
      --sout-x264-keyint=<integer> 
                                 Maximum GOP size
          Sets maximum interval between IDR-frames. Larger values save bits,
          thus improving quality for a given bitrate at the cost of seeking
          precision. Use -1 for infinite.
      --sout-x264-min-keyint=<integer> 
                                 Minimum GOP size
          Sets minimum interval between IDR-frames. In H.264, I-frames do not
          necessarily bound a closed GOP because it is allowable for a P-frame
          to be predicted from more frames than just the one frame before it
          (also see reference frame option). Therefore, I-frames are not
          necessarily seekable. IDR-frames restrict subsequent P-frames from
          referring to any frame prior to the IDR-frame.  If scenecuts appear
          within this interval, they are still encoded as I-frames, but do not
          start a new GOP.
      --sout-x264-opengop, --no-sout-x264-opengop 
                                 Use recovery points to close GOPs
                                 (default disabled)
          use open GOP, for bluray compatibility use also bluray-compat option
      --sout-x264-bluray-compat, --no-sout-x264-bluray-compat 
                                 Enable compatibility hacks for Blu-ray support
                                 (default disabled)
          Enable hacks for Blu-ray support, this doesn't enforce every aspect
          of Blu-ray compatibility e.g. resolution, framerate, level
      --sout-x264-scenecut=<integer [-1 .. 100]> 
                                 Extra I-frames aggressivity
          Scene-cut detection. Controls how aggressively to insert extra
          I-frames. With small values of scenecut, the codec often has to force
          an I-frame when it would exceed keyint. Good values of scenecut may
          find a better location for the I-frame. Large values use more
          I-frames than necessary, thus wasting bits. -1 disables scene-cut
          detection, so I-frames are inserted only every other keyint frames,
          which probably leads to ugly encoding artifacts. Range 1 to 100.
      --sout-x264-bframes=<integer [0 .. 16]> 
                                 B-frames between I and P
          Number of consecutive B-frames between I and P-frames. Range 1 to 16.
      --sout-x264-b-adapt=<integer [0 .. 2]>

          Force the specified number of consecutive B-frames to be used, except
          possibly before an I-frame. Range 0 to 2.
      --sout-x264-b-bias=<integer [-100 .. 100]> 
                                 Influence (bias) B-frames usage
          Bias the choice to use B-frames. Positive values cause more B-frames,
          negative values cause less B-frames.
      --sout-x264-bpyramid={none,strict,normal} 
                                 Keep some B-frames as references
          Allows B-frames to be used as references for predicting other frames.
          Keeps the middle of 2+ consecutive B-frames as a reference, and
          reorders frame appropriately.  - none: Disabled  - strict: Strictly

                                 (default enabled)
          CABAC (Context-Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding). Slightly slows
          down encoding and decoding, but should save 10 to 15% bitrate.
      --sout-x264-fullrange, --no-sout-x264-fullrange 
                                 Use fullrange instead of TV colorrange
                                 (default disabled)
          TV-range is usually used colorrange, defining this to true will
          enable libx264 to use full colorrange on encoding
      --sout-x264-ref=<integer [1 .. 16]> 
                                 Number of reference frames
          Number of previous frames used as predictors. This is effective in
          Anime, but seems to make little difference in live-action source
          material. Some decoders are unable to deal with large frameref
          values. Range 1 to 16.
      --sout-x264-nf, --no-sout-x264-nf

                                 alpha:beta
          Loop filter AlphaC0 and Beta parameters. Range -6 to 6 for both alpha
          and beta parameters. -6 means light filter, 6 means strong.
      --sout-x264-psy-rd=<string> 
                                 Strength of psychovisual optimization, default
                                 is "1.0:0.0"

                                 Codec Profile
          Specify the codec profile explicitly. If you don't, the codec will
          determine the correct profile from other sources, such as resolution
          and bitrate. E.g. 'high'

          and bitrate. E.g. '4.2' for mpeg4-part10 or 'low' for mpeg2
      --sout-qsv-mpeg2-profile={decide,simple,main,high} 
                                 Codec Profile
          Specify the codec profile explicitly. If you don't, the codec will
          determine the correct profile from other sources, such as resolution
          and bitrate. E.g. 'high'

                                 Codec Level
          Specify the codec level explicitly. If you don't, the codec will
          determine the correct profile from other sources, such as resolution
          and bitrate. E.g. '4.2' for mpeg4-part10 or 'low' for mpeg2
      --sout-qsv-gop-size=<integer> 
                                 Group of Picture size
          Number of pictures within the current GOP (Group of Pictures); if
          GopPicSize=0, then the GOP size is unspecified. If GopPicSize=1, only
          I-frames are used.
      --sout-qsv-gop-refdist=<integer> 
                                 Group of Picture Reference Distance
          Distance between I- or P- key frames; if it is zero, the GOP
          structure is unspecified. Note: If GopRefDist = 1, there are no
          B-frames used.
      --sout-qsv-idr-interval=<integer> 
                                 IDR interval
          For H.264, IdrInterval specifies IDR-frame interval in terms of
          I-frames; if IdrInterval=0, then every I-frame is an IDR-frame. If
          IdrInterval=1, then every other I-frame is an IDR-frame, etc. For
          MPEG2, IdrInterval defines sequence header interval in terms of
          I-frames. If IdrInterval=N, SDK inserts the sequence header before
          every Nth I-frame. If IdrInterval=0 (default), SDK inserts the
          sequence header once at the beginning of the stream.
      --sout-qsv-target-usage={decide,quality,balanced,speed} 
                                 Target Usage
          The target usage allow to choose between different trade-offs between
          quality and speed. Allowed values are: 'speed', 'balanced' and

      --sout-qsv-accuracy=<integer [0 .. 100]> 
                                 Accuracy of RateControl
          Tolerance in percentage of the 'avbr'  (Average Variable BitRate)
          method. (e.g. 10 with a bitrate of 800  kbps means the encoder tries
          not to  go above 880 kbps and under  730 kbps. The targeted accuracy
          is only reached after a certained  convergence period. See the
          convergence parameter

          Defines the number of parallel encoding operations before we
          synchronise the result. Higher numbers may result on better
          throughput depending on hardware. MPEG2 needs at least 1 here.

 Kate overlay decoder (kate)
 Kate is a codec for text and image based overlays.
The Tiger rendering library is needed to render complex Kate streams, but VLC can still render static text and image based subtitles if it is not available.
Note that changing settings below will not take effect until a new stream is played. This will hopefully be fixed soon.
      --kate-formatted, --no-kate-formatted 
                                 Formatted Subtitles
                                 (default enabled)
          Kate streams allow for text formatting. VLC partly implements this,
          but you can choose to disable all formatting. Note that this has no
          effect is rendering via Tiger is enabled.

          Chorus
      --synth-gain=<float [0.000000 .. 10.000000]> 
                                 Synthesis gain
          This gain is applied to synthesis output. High values may cause
          saturation when many notes are played at a time.
      --synth-polyphony=<integer [1 .. 65535]> 
                                 Polyphony

                                 Subpicture position
          You can enforce the subpicture position on the video (0=center,
          1=left, 2=right, 4=top, 8=bottom, you can also use combinations of
          these values, e.g. 6=top-right).
      --dvbsub-x=<integer>       Decoding X coordinate
          X coordinate of the rendered subtitle
      --dvbsub-y=<integer>       Decoding Y coordinate

      --dummy-save-es, --no-dummy-save-es 
                                 Save raw codec data
                                 (default disabled)
          Save the raw codec data if you have selected/forced the dummy decoder
          in the main options.

 DTS Coherent Acoustics audio decoder (dca)
      --dts-dynrng, --no-dts-dynrng 
                                 DTS dynamic range compression
                                 (default enabled)
          Dynamic range compression makes the loud sounds softer, and the soft
          sounds louder, so you can more easily listen to the stream in a noisy
          environment without disturbing anyone. If you disable the dynamic
          range compression the playback will be more adapted to a movie
          theater or a listening room.

          Prefer visual artifacts instead of missing frames
      --avcodec-error-resilience=<integer> 
                                 Error resilience
          libavcodec can do error resilience. However, with a buggy encoder
          (such as the ISO MPEG-4 encoder from M$) this can produce a lot of
          errors. Valid values range from 0 to 4 (0 disables all errors
          resilience).
      --avcodec-workaround-bugs=<integer> 
                                 Workaround bugs

          8  ump4  16 no padding 32 ac vlc 64 Qpel chroma. This must be the sum
          of the values. For example, to fix "ac vlc" and "ump4", enter 40.
      --avcodec-hurry-up, --no-avcodec-hurry-up 
                                 Hurry up
                                 (default enabled)
          The decoder can partially decode or skip frame(s) when there is not
          enough time. It's useful with low CPU power but it can produce
          distorted pictures.
      --avcodec-skip-frame={-1 (None), 0 (Default), 1 (Non-ref), 2 (Bidir), 3 (Non-key), 4 (All)} 
                                 Skip frame (default=0)
          Force skipping of frames to speed up decoding (-1=None, 0=Default,
          1=B-frames, 2=P-frames, 3=B+P frames, 4=all frames).
      --avcodec-skip-idct=<integer [-1 .. 4]> 
                                 Skip idct (default=0)
          Force skipping of idct to speed up decoding for frame types (-1=None,
          0=Default, 1=B-frames, 2=P-frames, 3=B+P frames, 4=all frames).
      --avcodec-fast, --no-avcodec-fast 
                                 Allow speed tricks
                                 (default disabled)
          Allow non specification compliant speedup tricks. Faster but
          error-prone.
      --avcodec-skiploopfilter={0 (None), 1 (Non-ref), 2 (Bidir), 3 (Non-key), 4 (All)} 
                                 Skip the loop filter for H.264 decoding
          Skipping the loop filter (aka deblocking) usually has a detrimental
          effect on quality. However it provides a big speedup for high
          definition streams.
      --avcodec-debug=<integer>  Debug mask
          Set FFmpeg debug mask
      --avcodec-codec=<string>   Codec name

          Internal libavcodec codec name
      --sout-avcodec-hq={rd,bits,simple} 
                                 Quality level
          Quality level for the encoding of motions vectors (this can slow down
          the encoding very much).
      --sout-avcodec-keyint=<integer> 
                                 Ratio of key frames
          Number of frames that will be coded for one key frame.

                                 (default disabled)
          The encoder can make on-the-fly quality tradeoffs if your CPU can't
          keep up with the encoding rate. It will disable trellis quantization,
          then the rate distortion of motion vectors (hq), and raise the noise
          reduction threshold to ease the encoder's task.
      --sout-avcodec-interlace, --no-sout-avcodec-interlace 
                                 Interlaced encoding
                                 (default disabled)
          Enable dedicated algorithms for interlaced frames.

 Volume normalizer (normvol)
      --norm-buff-size=<integer> Number of audio buffers
          This is the number of audio buffers on which the power measurement is
          made. A higher number of buffers will increase the response time of
          the filter to a spike but will make it less sensitive to short
          variations.
      --norm-max-level=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]> 
                                 Maximal volume level
          If the average power over the last N buffers is higher than this
          value, the volume will be normalized. This value is a positive
          floating point number. A value between 0.5 and 10 seems sensible.

          The delay which is introduced by the physical algorithm may sometimes
          be disturbing for the synchronization between lips-movement and
          speech. In case, turn this on to compensate.
      --headphone-dolby, --no-headphone-dolby 
                                 No decoding of Dolby Surround

      --spdif, --no-spdif        Force S/PDIF support
                                 (default disabled)
          This option should be used when the audio output can't negotiate
          S/PDIF support.
      --force-dolby-surround={0 (Auto), 1 (On), 2 (Off)} 
                                 Force detection of Dolby Surround
          Use this when you know your stream is (or is not) encoded with Dolby
          Surround but fails to be detected as such. Even if the stream is not
          actually encoded with Dolby Surround, turning on this option might
          enhance your experience, especially when combined with the Headphone
          Channel Mixer.
      --stereo-mode={0 (Unset), 1 (Stereo), 2 (Reverse stereo), 3 (Left), 4 (Right), 5 (Dolby Surround), 6 (Headphones)}

                                 (default enabled)
          This allows playing audio at lower or higher speed without affecting
          the audio pitch
  -A, --aout={any,mmdevice,directsound,waveout,amem,afile,adummy,none} 
                                 Audio output module
          This is the audio output method used by VLC. The default behavior is
          to automatically select the best method available.
      --role={video,music,communication,game,notification,animation,production,accessibility,test} 
                                 Media role

      --audio-resampler={any,samplerate,ugly,speex_resampler,none} 
                                 Audio resampler
          This selects which plugin to use for audio resampling.

 Video
 These options allow you to modify the behavior of the video output subsystem. You can for example enable video filters (deinterlacing, image adjusting, etc.). Enable these filters here and configure them in the "video filters" modules section. You can also set many miscellaneous video options.
      --video, --no-video        Enable video
                                 (default enabled)
          You can completely disable the video output. The video decoding stage
          will not take place, thus saving some processing power.
      --grayscale, --no-grayscale 
                                 Grayscale video output
                                 (default disabled)
          Output video in grayscale. As the color information aren't decoded,
          this can save some processing power.
  -f, --fullscreen, --no-fullscreen 
                                 Fullscreen video output
                                 (default disabled)

          Embed the video output in the main interface.
      --xlib, --no-xlib          
                                 (default enabled)
      --drop-late-frames, --no-drop-late-frames 
                                 Drop late frames
                                 (default enabled)
          This drops frames that are late (arrive to the video output after
          their intended display date).
      --skip-frames, --no-skip-frames 
                                 Skip frames
                                 (default enabled)
          Enables framedropping on MPEG2 stream. Framedropping occurs when your
          computer is not powerful enough
      --quiet-synchro, --no-quiet-synchro 
                                 Quiet synchro
                                 (default disabled)

          output synchronization mechanism.
      --keyboard-events, --no-keyboard-events 
                                 Key press events
                                 (default enabled)
          This enables VLC hotkeys from the (non-embedded) video window.
      --mouse-events, --no-mouse-events 
                                 Mouse events
                                 (default enabled)
          This enables handling of mouse clicks on the video.
      --video-on-top, --no-video-on-top 
                                 Always on top

                                 (default enabled)
          Display the snapshot preview in the screen's top-left corner.
      --snapshot-sequential, --no-snapshot-sequential 
                                 Use sequential numbers instead of timestamps
                                 (default disabled)
          Use sequential numbers instead of timestamps for snapshot numbering
      --snapshot-width=<integer> Video snapshot width
          You can enforce the width of the video snapshot. By default it will
          keep the original width (-1). Using 0 will scale the width to keep
          the aspect ratio.
      --snapshot-height=<integer> 
                                 Video snapshot height
          You can enforce the height of the video snapshot. By default it will
          keep the original height (-1). Using 0 will scale the height to keep
          the aspect ratio.
   Window properties:
      --width=<integer>          Video width
          You can enforce the video width. By default (-1) VLC will adapt to
          the video characteristics.
      --height=<integer>         Video height
          You can enforce the video height. By default (-1) VLC will adapt to
          the video characteristics.
      --video-x=<integer>        Video X coordinate
          You can enforce the position of the top left corner of the video
          window (X coordinate).
      --video-y=<integer>        Video Y coordinate
          You can enforce the position of the top left corner of the video
          window (Y coordinate).
      --crop=<string>            Video cropping
          This forces the cropping of the source video. Accepted formats are
          x:y (4:3, 16:9, etc.) expressing the global image aspect.
      --custom-crop-ratios=<string> 
                                 Custom crop ratios list
          Comma separated list of crop ratios which will be added in the
          interface's crop ratios list.
      --aspect-ratio=<string>    Source aspect ratio
          This forces the source aspect ratio. For instance, some DVDs claim to
          be 16:9 while they are actually 4:3. This can also be used as a hint
          for VLC when a movie does not have aspect ratio information. Accepted
          formats are x:y (4:3, 16:9, etc.) expressing the global image aspect,
          or a float value (1.25, 1.3333, etc.) expressing pixel squareness.
      --autoscale, --no-autoscale 
                                 Video Auto Scaling
                                 (default enabled)
          Let the video scale to fit a given window or fullscreen.
      --monitor-par=<string>     Monitor pixel aspect ratio
          This forces the monitor aspect ratio. Most monitors have square
          pixels (1:1). If you have a 16:9 screen, you might need to change
          this to 4:3 in order to keep proportions.
      --custom-aspect-ratios=<string> 
                                 Custom aspect ratios list
          Comma separated list of aspect ratios which will be added in the
          interface's aspect ratio list.
      --hdtv-fix, --no-hdtv-fix  Fix HDTV height
                                 (default enabled)
          This allows proper handling of HDTV-1080 video format even if broken
          encoder incorrectly sets height to 1088 lines. You should only
          disable this option if your video has a non-standard format requiring
          all 1088 lines.
      --video-deco, --no-video-deco 
                                 Window decorations
                                 (default enabled)
          VLC can avoid creating window caption, frames, etc... around the
          video, giving a "minimal" window.
      --video-title=<string>     Video title
          Custom title for the video window (in case the video is not embedded
          in the interface).
      --align={0 (Center), 1 (Left), 2 (Right), 4 (Top), 8 (Bottom), 5 (Top-Left), 6 (Top-Right), 9 (Bottom-Left), 10 (Bottom-Right)} 
                                 Video alignment
          Enforce the alignment of the video in its window. By default (0) it
          will be centered (0=center, 1=left, 2=right, 4=top, 8=bottom, you can
          also use combinations of these values, like 6=4+2 meaning top-right).
      --zoom=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]> 
                                 Zoom video
          You can zoom the video by the specified factor.

          Deinterlace
      --deinterlace-mode={auto,discard,blend,mean,bob,linear,x,yadif,yadif2x,phosphor,ivtc} 
                                 Deinterlace mode
          Deinterlace method to use for video processing.
  -V, --vout={any,direct3d11,direct3d9,glwin32,gl,directdraw,wingdi,caca,vdummy,vmem,flaschen,yuv,vdummy,none} 
                                 Video output module
          This is the the video output method used by VLC. The default behavior
          is to automatically select the best method available.
      --video-filter=<string>    Video filter module
          This adds post-processing filters to enhance the picture quality, for
          instance deinterlacing, or distort the video.
      --video-splitter=<string>  Video splitter module
          This adds video splitters like clone or wall

 Subpictures
 These options allow you to modify the behavior of the subpictures subsystem. You can for example enable subpictures sources (logo, etc.). Enable these filters here and configure them in the "subsources filters" modules section. You can also set many miscellaneous subpictures options.
   On Screen Display:
      --spu, --no-spu            Enable sub-pictures
                                 (default enabled)

      --osd, --no-osd            On Screen Display
                                 (default enabled)
          VLC can display messages on the video. This is called OSD (On Screen
          Display).
      --text-renderer={any,freetype,tdummy,sapi,none} 
                                 Text rendering module
          VLC normally uses Freetype for rendering, but this allows you to use
          svg for instance.
   Subtitles:
      --sub-file=<string>        Use subtitle file
          Load this subtitle file. To be used when autodetect cannot detect
          your subtitle file.
      --sub-autodetect-file, --no-sub-autodetect-file 
                                 Autodetect subtitle files

          Automatically detect a subtitle file, if no subtitle filename is
          specified (based on the filename of the movie).
      --sub-autodetect-fuzzy=<integer> 
                                 Subtitle autodetection fuzziness
          This determines how fuzzy subtitle and movie filename matching will
          be. Options are: 0 = no subtitles autodetected 1 = any subtitle file
          2 = any subtitle file containing the movie name 3 = subtitle file
          matching the movie name with additional chars 4 = subtitle file
          matching the movie name exactly
      --sub-autodetect-path=<string> 
                                 Subtitle autodetection paths
          Look for a subtitle file in those paths too, if your subtitle file
          was not found in the current directory.
      --sub-margin=<integer>     Force subtitle position
          You can use this option to place the subtitles under the movie,
          instead of over the movie. Try several positions.
      --sub-text-scale=<integer [10 .. 500]> 
                                 Subtitles text scaling factor

   Special modules:
      --vod-server={any,stream_out_rtp,rtsp,none} 
                                 VoD server module
          You can select which VoD server module you want to use. Set this to
          'vod_rtsp' to switch back to the old, legacy module.
   Plugins:
      --plugins-cache, --no-plugins-cache 
                                 Use a plugins cache
                                 (default enabled)
          Use a plugins cache which will greatly improve the startup time of
          VLC.
      --plugins-scan, --no-plugins-scan 
                                 Scan for new plugins

                                 (default disabled)
          Increasing the priority of the process will very likely improve your
          playing experience as it allows VLC not to be disturbed by other
          applications that could otherwise take too much processor time.
          However be advised that in certain circumstances (bugs) VLC could
          take all the processor time and render the whole system unresponsive
          which might require a reboot of your machine.

                                 (default disabled)
          Allowing only one running instance of VLC can sometimes be useful,
          for example if you associated VLC with some media types and you don't
          want a new instance of VLC to be opened each time you open a file in
          your file manager. This option will allow you to play the file with

          This enables colorization of the messages sent to the console. Your
          terminal needs Linux color support for this to work.
      --advanced, --no-advanced  Show advanced options
                                 (default disabled)
