<P><FONT SIZE=2>It is possible for a command line argument to be added to vlc (for all versions, platforms) baseline that specifies an input timeout value. This timeout value would apply when receiving input from a network stream. If nothing has been received and the timeout expires, then vlc would self terminate.</FONT></P>
