Hey Laughing Man

I played little bit with new VLC 0.9.2
In windows it works better if you start vlc from command promt like this: vlc -I rc --rc-host :4444 --extraintf qt

Then you should be able to connect it with telnet in port 4444.
It seems that there is a bug in windows version of VLC. If you write those interface parameters in other order, then user might not be able to remote connect everytime.
