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


Here's the output of ''vlc --longhelp --advanced --help-verbose'' of the development version 0.9.0-svn-20070112-0001 (12 jan. 2007) in Windows.
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


  <nowiki>     
To view this without leaving the command-line in Windows, use the following command (assuming you installed it in the default folder):
Usage: vlc.exe [options] [stream] ...
  more "{{VLC folder|windows}}\vlc-help.txt"
You can specify multiple streams on the commandline. They will be enqueued in the playlist.
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.
 
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 <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and <kbd>+</kbd> together in most browsers will increase the font size (reset with <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and <kbd>0</kbd> together).

          You can set the default audio output volume
          here, in a range from 0 to 1024.
      --volume-step=<integer>    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,

      --dvdread-css-method={title,disc,key}
                                Method used by libdvdcss for decryption
          Set the method used by libdvdcss for key
          decryption.
title: decrypted title key is
          guessed from the encrypted sectors of the
          stream. Thus it should work with a file as
          well as the DVD device. But it sometimes
          takes much time to decrypt a title key and
          may even fail. With this method, the key is
          only checked at the beginning of each title,
          so it won't work if the key changes in the
          middle of a title.
disc: the disc key is
          first cracked, then all title keys can be
          decrypted instantly, which allows us to check
          them often.
key: the same as "disc" if you
          don't have a file with player keys at
          compilation time. If you do, the decryption
          of the disc key will be faster with this
           method. It is the one that was used by
          libcss.
The default method is: key.

          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.

          resilience).
      --avcodec-workaround-bugs=<integer>
                                Workaround bugs

                                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.

                                (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,

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


 Visualizer filter (visual)
   General:
      --effect-list=<string>     Effects list
          A list of visual effect, separated by commas. Current effects

      --effect-fft-window={none,hann,flattop,blackmanharris,kaiser} 
                                 FFT window
          The type of FFT window to use for spectrum-based visualizations.
      --effect-kaiser-param=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]> 
                                 Kaiser window parameter
          The parameter alpha for the Kaiser window. Increasing alpha increases

                                 (default disabled)
          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.

                                 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)

 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]> 
                                 Adaptive B-frame decision
          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
          hierarchical pyramid  - normal: Non-strict (not Blu-ray compatible) 
      --sout-x264-cabac, --no-sout-x264-cabac 
                                 CABAC
                                 (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"

      --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.

                                 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
          Try to fix some bugs: 1  autodetect 2  old msmpeg4 4  xvid interlaced
          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>

                                 (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

                                 Rate control buffer size
          Rate control buffer size (in kbytes). A bigger buffer will allow for
          better rate control, but will cause a delay in the stream.
      --sout-avcodec-rc-buffer-aggressivity=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]>

                                 MPEG4 quantization matrix
                                 (default disabled)
          Use the MPEG4 quantization matrix for MPEG2 encoding. This generally
          yields a better looking picture, while still retaining the
          compatibility with standard MPEG2 decoders.

      --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]>

          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

 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.
      --gain=<float [0.000000 .. 8.000000]> 
                                 Audio gain
          This linear gain will be applied to outputted audio.

          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)}

      --access={any,satip,vdr,filesystem,filesystem,access_realrtsp,access,dtv,dshow,imem,ftp,cdda,attachment,http,imem_access,nfs,concat,sdp,sftp,smb,tcp,udp,vcd,upnp,avcodec,access_mms,none} 
                                 Access module
          This allows you to force an access module. You can use it if the
          correct access is not automatically detected. You should not set this
          as a global option unless you really know what you are doing.
      --demux={any,mp4,avi,asf,es,flacsys,mpc,nuv,tta,wav,caf,sid,sap,ogg,mkv,live555,smf,adaptive,ts,xa,gme,aiff,directory,rawvid,image,pva,voc,mod,au,nsv,ps,ty,h26x,h26x,dvdnav,libbluray,mpgv,mjpeg,rawdv,demux_cdg,nsc,webvtt,ttml,avcodec,ps,vobsub,demux_stl,vc1,es,subtitle,real,demuxdump,stats,rawaud,webvtt,none} 
                                 Demux module
          Demultiplexers are used to separate the "elementary" streams (like
          audio and video streams). You can use it if the correct demuxer is
          not automatically detected. You should not set this as a global
          option unless you really know what you are doing.
      --stream-filter=<string>   Stream filter module
          Stream filters are used to modify the stream that is being read.
      --demux-filter=<string>    Demux filter module
          Demux filters are used to modify/control the stream that is being
          read.

 Stream output
 These options allow you to set default global options for the stream output subsystem.
      --sout=<string>            Default stream output chain
          You can enter here a default stream output chain. Refer to the
          documentation to learn how to build such chains. Warning: this chain
          will be enabled for all streams.
      --sout-display, --no-sout-display 
                                 Display while streaming
                                 (default disabled)
          Play locally the stream while streaming it.
      --sout-keep, --no-sout-keep 
                                 Keep stream output open
                                 (default disabled)
          This allows you to keep an unique stream output instance across
          multiple playlist item (automatically insert the gather stream output
          if not specified)
      --sout-all, --no-sout-all  Enable streaming of all ES
                                 (default enabled)
          Stream all elementary streams (video, audio and subtitles)
      --sout-audio, --no-sout-audio 
                                 Enable audio stream output
                                 (default enabled)
          Choose whether the audio stream should be redirected to the stream
          output facility when this last one is enabled.
      --sout-video, --no-sout-video 
                                 Enable video stream output
                                 (default enabled)
          Choose whether the video stream should be redirected to the stream
          output facility when this last one is enabled.
      --sout-spu, --no-sout-spu  Enable SPU stream output
                                 (default enabled)
          Choose whether the SPU streams should be redirected to the stream
          output facility when this last one is enabled.
      --sout-mux-caching=<integer> 
                                 Stream output muxer caching (ms)
          This allow you to configure the initial caching amount for stream
          output muxer. This value should be set in milliseconds.
   VLM:
      --vlm-conf=<string>        VLM configuration file
          Read a VLM configuration file as soon as VLM is started.

          When the SAP flow control is disabled, this lets you set the fixed
          interval between SAP announcements.
      --mux={any,mux_ts,ps,mux_ogg,asf,wav,mpjpeg,dummy,mp4,avi,avcodec,mp4,none} 
                                 Mux module
          This is a legacy entry to let you configure mux modules
      --access_output={any,file,dummy,ftp,http,access_output_livehttp,access_output_shout,udp,stream_out_chromecast,avcodec,none} 
                                 Access output module
          This is a legacy entry to let you configure access output modules
      --ttl=<integer>            Hop limit (TTL)
          This is the hop limit (also known as "Time-To-Live" or TTL) of the
          multicast packets sent by the stream output (-1 = use operating
          system built-in default).
      --miface=<string>          Multicast output interface
          Default multicast interface. This overrides the routing table.
      --dscp=<integer>           DiffServ Code Point
          Differentiated Services Code Point for outgoing UDP streams (or IPv4
          Type Of Service, or IPv6 Traffic Class). This is used for network
          Quality of Service.
      --packetizer={any,aes3,theora,speex,lpcm,rawvideo,vorbis,spudec,svcdsub,mpegvideo,cvdsub,mpeg4video,vc1,mpeg4audio,mlp,flac,h264,hevc,avcodec,oggspots,mpegaudio,a52,dts,copy,none} 
                                 Preferred packetizer list
          This allows you to select the order in which VLC will choose its
          packetizers.

 Miscellaneous
 These options allow you to select default modules. Leave these alone unless you really know what you are doing.
   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 enabled)
          Scan plugin directories for new plugins at startup. This increases
          the startup time of VLC.
      --keystore=<string>        Preferred keystore list
          List of keystores that VLC will use in priority.
   Performance options:
      --high-priority, --no-high-priority 
                                 Increase the priority of the process
                                 (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.
      --clock-source={,interrupt,tick,multimedia,perf,wall} 
                                 Clock source
          Clock source

  -Z, --random, --no-random      Play files randomly forever
                                 (default disabled)
          VLC will randomly play files in the playlist until interrupted.
  -L, --loop, --no-loop          Repeat all
                                 (default disabled)
          VLC will keep playing the playlist indefinitely.
  -R, --repeat, --no-repeat      Repeat current item
                                 (default disabled)
          VLC will keep playing the current playlist item.
      --play-and-exit, --no-play-and-exit 
                                 Play and exit
                                 (default disabled)
          Exit if there are no more items in the playlist.
      --play-and-stop, --no-play-and-stop 
                                 Play and stop
                                 (default disabled)
          Stop the playlist after each played playlist item.
      --play-and-pause, --no-play-and-pause 
                                 Play and pause

                                 (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
          the already running instance or enqueue it.
      --started-from-file, --no-started-from-file 
                                 VLC is started from file association
                                 (default disabled)
          Tell VLC that it is being launched due to a file association in the
          OS
      --one-instance-when-started-from-file, --no-one-instance-when-started-from-file

      --playlist-enqueue, --no-playlist-enqueue 
                                 Enqueue items into playlist in one instance
                                 mode
                                 (default disabled)
          When using the one instance only option, enqueue items to playlist
          and keep playing current item.
      --media-library, --no-media-library 
                                 Use media library
                                 (default disabled)
          The media library is automatically saved and reloaded each time you
          start VLC.
      --playlist-tree, --no-playlist-tree 
                                 Display playlist tree
                                 (default disabled)
          The playlist can use a tree to categorize some items, like the
          contents of a directory.
      --open=<string>            Default stream
          This stream will always be opened at VLC startup.
      --auto-preparse, --no-auto-preparse 
                                 Automatically preparse items
                                 (default enabled)
          Automatically preparse items added to the playlist (to retrieve some
          metadata).

      --ignore-filetypes=<string> 
                                 Ignored extensions
          Files with these extensions will not be added to playlist when
          opening a directory. This is useful if you add directories that
          contain playlist files for instance. Use a comma-separated list of
          extensions.
      --show-hiddenfiles, --no-show-hiddenfiles 
                                 Show hidden files

                                 (default enabled)
          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)
          When this is enabled, the preferences and/or interfaces will show all
          available options, including those that most users should never
          touch.
      --interact, --no-interact  Interface interaction
                                 (default enabled)

          automatically select the best module available.
      --extraintf=<string>       Extra interface modules
          You can select "additional interfaces" for VLC. They will be launched
          in the background in addition to the default interface. Use a colon
          separated list of interface modules. (common values are "rc" (remote
          control), "http", "gestures" ...)
      --control=<string>         Control interfaces
          You can select control interfaces for VLC.
