Revision as of 19:21, 4 August 2005

As you may have noticed, the command vlc --help is not very useful due to to the non-scrollable pop-up window that opened.

If you look for help, on a particular module, use vlc -p module --advanced

So here the output of vlc --longhelp --advanced for the 0.8.2 version in Windows.

If you want extra explanations, you can try the --help-verbose option.

     
Usage: c:\Xtophe\VLC\vlc.exe [options] [playlistitems] ...
You can specify multiple playlistitems 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 playlistitem directly before it
            and that overrides previous settings.

Playlistitem MRL syntax:
  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://]filename              Plain media file
  http://ip:port/file            HTTP URL
  ftp://ip:port/file             FTP URL
  mms://ip:port/file             MMS URL
  screen://                      Screen capture
  [dvd://][device][@raw_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                      Special item to pause the playlist
