Unfortunately, VLC contains the http server, so it must be running. I
suppose you could enable some other listener and then send a trigger to
the appropriate port, but that's beyond me.
But I have had success using the --xvideo-display option. That might be
what you're looking for. Try
cvlc --ffullscreen --xvideo-display :0
cvlc kills the default interface.
