So no one has an answer for why passing flags and the values the flags need
through subprocess does not work? I would like an answer. I've examined all
the examples I could find online, which were all toy examples, and not
helpful to my problem.

Hello,
The problem might be that, aside from creating the Popen object, to
get the command run you need to call 'communicate' (other options, not
used with the Popen object directly, are 'call' or 'waitpid' as
explained in the documentation). Did you do that?
Best regards,

I can't use communicate, as it waits for the child process to terminate.
Basically it blocks. I'm trying to have dynamic communication between the
python program, and vlc.

Sorry, XD. I'll ask the VLC people if they happen to know why VLC won't open
up the remote interface.

It appears to be an issue specifically with VLC, not subprocess. Thank you
guys. The remote interface works through sockets, which is perfectly fine...
if I create a local socket, I can have it connect to the socket with command
line arguments.

I've been trying any variation I can think of to do this properly, but
here's my problem:
