Silent generation of QVD

Is it possible to execute a QVW from a script or command line without the resulting GUI displaying the script output? I have a QVW that does nothing but generate QVDs so I don't need a console window. Is there a setting somewhere that I haven't been able to find, that turns off the GUI?

Thanks

Just run

<path to qv.exe>\qv.exe /r <path to qvw>\qvwfile.qvw

in a bat file, and schedule in windows schduler, or any 3rd party scheduler. It will run without any output screens in b/g.

Make sure to wrap paths\file in double quotes, if it contains any spaces or special chars.
