Hi,

I've tried to start the RPC when my windows session open, but if VLC is not started i get an error

events.js:174
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:8080

I hope that will be fixed soon, thank you :)

We're currently working on the next version that handles issues like this.

Here's a preview release of the next version. Hope you like it so far. It handles the error you're looking at rather than that nonsense it says "Failed to connect to VLC, is it open?" until it is open.
