VLC-WRAPPER(1)
β¨ NAME β¨
vlc-wrapper β bestie, it's literally a wrapper that drops privileges with VLC π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
vlc-wrapper [OPTIONS]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
Okay so, this manual page is the quick lil rundown of the VLC wrapper whose whole entire job is opening up privileged network ports π
The ports it can open are 80, 443 and 554. That's the whole list, no cap π
π OPTIONS π
They get passed to VLC with no modification whatsoever. Zero. None. Straight through, untouched, iconic β¨
π«Ά USAGE π«Ά
The preferred way is to use sudo, and honestly? It's giving main character energy:
$ sudo vlc-wrapper --option1 --option2
You can also set the SUDO_UID environment variable instead, if that's your vibe π§
# SUDO_UID=1000 vlc-wrapper --option1 --option2
