--execute=<script> - Execute the given script snippet
--execute=<file> - Load the given script and execute it
With this command line option you are able to execute any little script by the command line. For scripting details, please refer to the . Instead of using the command line for this purpose, you can also use , which, however, is a little bit more tricky.

--kioskrect=[<x>,<y>,]<width>,<height>[,clipmouse]
With this option you can force the Silverjuke window to the given rectangle when using the kiosk mode. This is usefull if you want to show sth. beside the Silverjuke window (by default, the whole screen is used). If the x and y parameters are skipped, the window will be placed at the upper left corner at 0/0.
Moreover, if you add the "clipmouse" modified, the mouse cannot be moved outside the given rectangle. Using the following command line option, you can also assign a static portion of the screen for the visualization:
--visrect=[<x>,<y>,]<width>,<height>
If --visrect or --kioskrect are given, portions of the screen not used by Silverjuke can be used by other programs - otherwise, Silverjuke would "darken" eg. an unused 2nd or 3rd screen.

--update
This will automatically upate the index as if you hit F5 just after starting Silverjuke. If you use this option in combination with --kiosk and the kiosk mode is running with limited functionality, the update process cannot be aborted.

--instance=<INI-file>
If you give a different INI-file to each instance, you can use multiple instances of Silverjuke with this option. All settings for each instance are stored in the INI-file, so the intances are completely independent; however, make sure, there are not conflicts regarding the used hardware.
You can give the INI-files as complete paths; if the files do not exist, they are created as needed.
If you want to use different music libraries for each instance, you have to use the --db=<file> option as described above.

--skiperrors
With this option you can avoid showing errors about an erroneous termination on the last Silverjuke run. This is especially useful when turning off Silverjuke using the "Power off" button, as in this case the operating system may not give us the time we need to unload all modules completely.

You may control Silverjuke by the command line with the following options:
--ini=<file> - set the configuration file to use
--db=<file> - set the database file to use
--temp=<directory> - set the temp. directory to use
--play
--pause
--toggle - toggle play/pause
--prev
--next
--kiosk - start Silverjuke in kiosk mode
--minimize - start Silverjuke minimized
--open <files> - open the given files, --open may be ommited
--enqueue <files> - enqueue the given files
--help - show all available commands
Although there is always only one instance of Silverjuke running, you may call Silverjuke.exe with these commands which will then be forwarded to the running instance if possible.
If you want to use the command line on
Mac OS X, you have to execute the program in the app's package directly, eg. /Applications/Silverjuke.app/Contents/MacOS/Silverjuke --help. Under 
Windows, you use eg. c:ProgramsSilverjukeSilverjuke.exe --help.You can set the "db", "temp", "kiosk" and "minimize" options also manually to the current configuration file (ini file) in the section "main". Moreover, if there is a file called mysettings.ini in the program's directory (where silverjuke.exe is), this file is used as the configuration file. All this allows you to run Silverjuke independently from a windows system eg. on a removable disk where you save your music together with Silverjuke.
BTW, most commands are also available through . Feel free to post any questions or comments to this thread.
