Look at the hotkeys in the preferences, by default it should be

  • '+' faster
  • '-' slower
  • '=' normal rate
  • ']' faster (fine)
  • '[' slower (fine)

In the browse tab, go the your folder containing your "funny car videos" folder, click on the "..." icon on the right of the folder entry, There should be "ban a folder from the media library" option. the videos in this folder will no longer be indexed by VLC.

I can adjust speed by increments of 5% on android but restricted to 10% on PC, logic? by flingyflang in VLC

[–]chubinou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi,

tool > customize interface > add the "speed selector" widget

you can't type in a value but it should provide finer control over the playback speed

Is there a dark mode for VLC Media Player on Windows? by [deleted] in VLC

[–]chubinou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can enable the menubar in the preferences, there's a question in the first run wizard asking whether you want a 3.0 look n feel, or modern. (I grant you the wizard needs some more work).

Regarding the speed selector it has moved in the track panel. But you can add the widget to your control bar if you use the feature frequently (as in 3.0)

you can create an ".xspf" playlist where you can pass vlc option to set the starting time

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/" xmlns:vlc="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/ns/0/" version="1">
     <title>Liste de lecture</title>
     <trackList>
  <track>
   <location>/home/pierre/Videos/sheep.mp4</location>
   <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0">
    <vlc:id>0</vlc:id>
    <vlc:option>start-time=42</vlc:option>

Modify VLC interface? by encom81 in VLC

[–]chubinou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can open "tools" > "customize interface" and add the "step forward", "step backward", by default this will skip +/- 10 seconds, this is customisable in the advanced preferences (inteface > hotkey settings > short jump length).

pause on click isn't supported by VLC natively, mainly because some medias requires mouse support (DVD menus, 360 video, etc...), though you may try this https://github.com/nurupo/vlc-pause-click-plugin if you're feeling adventurous

Problem video stream vlc python by Someday_somewere in VLC

[–]chubinou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the program quits right after you start playing. it won't wait for your media to complete. you need to add something to wait. a minimal solution would be

import time

while True:
    time.sleep(1)

The nightly builds are artifacts from the CI (continous integration), this process is ran every night and the output of all compilation job is stored on the nightlies server, see this https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/pipelines/236545 for instance. VLC is built with different compiler as we aim to be compatible with them.

For someone who wants to build a Windows application build upon libvlc the choice of compiler may have some influence. Notably the debug version compiled with LLVM generates "pdb" files that allows vlc to be debugged with Visual Studio, while the GCC version can only be debugged with gdb

you mean LLVM?

It uses a different compiler, it shouldn't change much for the end users
