I am trying to verify this bug by getting other people to try this on Windows. So far, I have had no luck on #videolan. :-) >> Maybe because you sent neither "\r\n" nor "\n" after "quit". > > Good point, but sending quit\n and quit\r\n gives the same result. Okay, so then the issue indeed appears to be that VLC reads from the terminal instead of the standard input device. (I guess it does that so that you can pipe a media stream to the VLC process while also controlling it from the terminal.) The --rc-fake-tty option is supposed to ``force the rc module to use stdin as if it was a TTY''. It appears, then, that this option does not work with the Windows port of VLC. This looks like a bug in VLC. I will report it.
