executes the vlc command only if I am logged in.
What is the error message from cron?
When I am not logged in, cron still executes the command (as I can see from the syslog) but there is no output. And no message from cron for this instance.
Whereas, when I am logged in, the song is played but I also get a message (attached) from the cron.
