Start VLC minimized

I'd like to have VLC media player run minimized. I'm using this to run VLC:


The @SW_HIDE at the end hides the command window itself but not the program that is started, VLC. I might be able to use something like this to minimize the window:


But this doesn't work, and it doesn't feel really satisfying either.

Is there a good solution to start VLC minimized? Thanks in advance.
