Bug#531975: More info

[Marcelo]

Hi,

I just installed the packages from experimental.

$ VLC_VERBOSE=0 cvlc --play-and-exit --verbose 0 --quiet ...
VLC media player 1.0.0-rc2 Goldeneye
Interface initialization failed

$

I'm pretty sure I wasn't getting that "interface initialization
failed" message before, but that's irrelevant.

Can we get rid of the banner, too?  What I'm doing here is running vlc
from a cronjob, so I would really like to have error messages
displayed (or in this case, mailed to me), but I don't really care for
the banner.  For now I'm working around this by filtering the output
thru a pipe, but I really feel VLC ought to honor the multiple ways
I'm telling it to please shut up.  At least now I can simplify a
little down to:

$ cvlc --play-and-exit --quiet ... 2>&1 | tail -n +2
Interface initialization failed
$

Thanks!

Marcelo
