title: Open Video file in VLC through Python
body: <pre><code>import subprocess
  import os
  print os.path.exists("C:/Users/Dhruv/Desktop/Motivation/RiseShine.mp4") 
  p = subprocess.Popen(["C:/Program Files (x86)/VideoLAN/VLC/vlc.exe","C:/Users/Dhruv/Desktop/Motivation/RiseShine.mp4"])
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The code above is to open a video file in VLC player using python. The VLC player opens up, but does not run the video. I have checked the video location, it is correct.
  Can somebody tell me how to make this work?</p>
