HollywoodPlayer commandline option to Not Open GUI

Post by NathanH »

Hi,

I've written some CLI scripts using Hollywood and want to use the HollywoodPlayer so that the scripts aren't huge. It would be nice if the GUI didn't pop up when running an applet with HollywoodPlayer from the CLI. Thanks.

Long ago discussed and said that is not possible (in windows?) ->viewtopic.php?p=10351#p10351

yet again there are non window cli commands out there :) maybe has something to do with Hollywood internal infrastructure

I think you can do that by setting the QUIET tooltype in the applet icon or pass -quiet from CLI or put the following at the top of the script:

Code: Select all

@OPTIONS {Quiet = True}

Hi,

I'm developing and testing on Amiga OS3.9 via WinUAE at the moment. Placing the Quiet=True option in the script solved the problem. No window pops up. Thank you very much!
