ps ax | grep -E 'tty2|pts/21' and see what is starting it on those terminals.
Virtually everything started after logging in.
I contacted silicondust support, and they said any application that supports DNLA will work, but apparently weren't able to tell me how vlc specifically is being spawned. It's definitely launched by HDHomeRun, but I can't find anything in the documentation or any local config files that describes how that's happening.
Their documentation appears to indicate you have to first set the UDP port after starting vlc, but that's not even necessary with the way it's somehow configured on my system.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

I've also tried to figure out how HDHomeRun is launching vlc from a file(?), but also don't see anything there, unless it's talking about the socket...
