Run VLC as detached #3

Closed misterpyrrhuloxia closed 7 months ago

misterpyrrhuloxia commented 10 months ago

In Pigpog's original repo, there was a way to set up VLC to run "detached" from vlc-discord-rpc:

Out of the box, starting vlc-discord-rpc will open VLC, and closing VLC will close vlc-discord-rpc. This is the "attached" mode, and it is the default because "it just works" in most cases.

Detached mode will not open VLC for you, and closing VLC won't close vlc-discord-rpc. It requires a bit of tweaking, but once it is configured, it allows you to open and close VLC as you normally would and still show a rich presence.

How can we achieve this same functionality using your fork of vlc-discord-rpc?

Apologies for the wait.
