I am trying to control VLC on my Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop from my Xubuntu 16.04 laptop. I originally used the command vlc -f myVideo.avi
which ran the video in the terminal(side note how cool is that).
I found this answer which did fix the issue, but it is now displaying on the incorrect monitor. I tried export DISPLAY=:1
for 1-4 and on those it would not display at all. I tried man export
hoping for options, but there is no man page for it. I can only get a display for 0, but that is not on the correct monitor. How can I specify which monitor I want VLC to play on through the command line?
