10 Awesome VLC Media Player Tips and Tricks

Does the VLC app have the ability to tell me if a formatted video is playing all 6 channels of sound that it was formatted for?

why...Is VLC SO complicated and difficult? I've now given up on it!

I can get it to record desktop, and I can get it to play the disc - but not at the same time, please help, thank you.

You know what a good VLC trick would be? To be able to create and update a music playlist without needing a freaking manual. Simple is better, you marketing geniuses!

What options can you use to convert a Facebook video to MP4 to play on your Android using VLC for Android?

Hi downloaded yesterday , seems good but - how can I make the touchpad play/pause - it is making me kind of crazy . I figured out how to use Hotkeys / custom ETC in settings but I can't change it to touchpad . is it not possible ?

The thing I want to know is the arrangement of all the buttons on taskbar in VLC. There was one button which used to show the VLC taskbar at top of screen. This no longer works on mine. Any insights as to how to get that function back???

Plz do this kind of video for MPC-HC. I use the K-Lite Codec included one.

Thank you so much!.I also have an installation tutorial

How do you change the VLC Icon to a thumbnail image on a video?

Ciao , istallato VLC e inserito un DVD film video ma non funziona sai dirmi se hanno tolto la visione x DVD . Grazie

I don't think this works anymore?

I bet you could cover up a watermark in a video with that LOGO Trick!

I have stopped using VLC a long time ago and now I am using MPC-HC. Found it better than VLC.

I've been trying to figure out why Windows Media Player won't play an MP4 but VLC will. I get the audio only in WMP no video.

I didn't know you can convert stuff with VLC. The only thing I need right now is to download videos online haha. Thanks Brian!

Perhaps you should have noted that these tips and tricks are for the Windows version. The Mac UI is different.

Unfortunately, VLC for Mac doesn't have any of these video effects.

And how to capture only one screen out of two?

I tried to record a YT video this way in VLC 3.0.16. It didn't work.

I wish that there is software that can edit playlists independently of the VLC Player.

I have camcorder footage recorded in 16/9 .when I try to record to dvd it comes out 4/3 is there any way to fix this?

Bom vídeo, mas ainda faltam os recursos que os antigos vídeos cassetes (VHS) tinham: avançar e retroceder, mostrando as imagens rapidamente, (botões ff e rev, lembram?). Nunca entendi porque o vídeo digital não tem estas facilidades.
Good video, but it still lacks the features that the old video cassettes (VHS) had: forward and backward, showing the images quickly, (ff and rev buttons, remember?). I never understood why digital video doesn't have these facilities.

Muito bom, vou atualizar. Very good. I will update.

Still waiting for good HDR option, and Nvidia filters support

Great work Thank you

I will keep checking but if you know how to change the black background when doing the puzzle game, I'd appreciate it.

Offhand does anyone know why my video screen is detached from the control screen?

The UI is the biggest downfall of this incredibly capable video tool. It is awful. Love the comments.

Hi Brian,
Great video. The VLC 'record desktop' function works but doesn't capture my mouse pointer. Is there anyway to do this in VLC?
If not, is there any other software to so this? What capture software did you use to make this video?
Thanks in advance.

Thank You..... Now I Need to Go Play with the VLC Player

A great video showing why VLC is nearly useless, unless you use it all the time. So complicated. There are too many unexplained options. VLC needs an alternative interface with preset defaults for the most common tasks a casual user might want to perform.

I found out a few months ago VLC actually allows you to stream video, specifically to a chromecast, so it's been amazing for that.

Your video was very helpful, I'm still learning and getting the hang of it still. I'm into House and EDM. I look forward to seeing more of your

dude..ZOOM IN..it's impossible to read even on a damn 1440p phone held within 4 inches.. seriously

I'm old and I have no clue what he's talking about. Is there a much easier media player out there for me?

hey , subscribed

Thanks for this useful tutorial. I have been using VLC to extract audio from videos.
