I am trying to execute the command exec('vlc');
from php script (in linux),
but then, the page (php) has not been loaded.
Even by using pcntl_fork (for exec command) this is not working.
But if I am trying to run from command line php -S localhost:8000 -t path/to/src,
and enter localhost:8000/page.php in the browser, the page has been loaded and the vlc opened.
What is the problem ?
Note:
If I am trying to run from command line php -r "exec('vlc');" the vlc opened.
In addition, I checked and the php not working in safe mode.
Update1:
<?php
echo shell_exec('vlc');
?>
**** not working ****
<?php
echo shell_exec('vlc 2>&1');
?>
The output:

Update2:
shell_exec("DISPLAY=:0 vlc");
working, but very slowly (with php -S ... , is faster).
I trying
shell_exec("DISPLAY=:0 vlc v4l2:///dev/video0 --sout '.settings.'");
(with some settings) but I received an error

What is the problem ?
Thanks in advance
