Can you take a screenshot with timestamp of the video ?

Currently a VLC screenshot will look like: vlcsnap-2021-10-13-22h00m00s000 I'm looking for something like this: vlcsnap-2021-10-13--22h00m00s000- time-12:34 <- time in the actual video I know you could just watch something windowed, and hit the windows print screen and it would show the time stamp i...

Re: Possible to make faster playback points as 1.25x / 1.5x / 1.75x / 2x ?

Ok thanks

So does that mean there is no way for users to customize their increments?

Re: How come VLC lags at playing .ts file types?

Hi, you can try to enable fast seek, but it is less precise. Hi, Thank you, I enabled Fast Seek. Problem still remains. If I do a 30 second jump forward or backwards it takes anywhere from 5-10 seconds for the video to un-freeze and sync up again. Audio is heard correctly during seeking. Is this th...

How come VLC lags at playing .ts file types?

These .ts video files are typically downloaded from web video players.

VLC still plays them, but if you try to seek, the video will pause and take several seconds to catch-up and start playing again.

1) Why is that?

2) Is there a fix?

Thank you

Re: Is there a dark version of the default VLC skin?

The default skin is not available in dark, although it is highly desired.
OK, can I make one then?

Re: Unable to play iPhone recorded 4k MOV files

Ok after using 3.0 for a few days it has more problems than it's worth unfortunately.

Guess I'll have to continue to look for a different solution or an official VLC update.

Thanks for your help!

Change color of blue full screen volume bar and seek bar? (3.0.0 nightly)

Running the latest 3.0.0 nightly build (Jan 10 2018)

1) The full screen volume bar and seek bar color is blue, can we change this to white?

2) Also, OSD font is default despite choosing a different font.

Are these changes not possible with the nightly builds?

Can we enable MONO audio? (2017)

Hi all, VLC is such a powerful media player with many features, yet lightweight and very user friendly. However, I've been unable to find a way to playback audio with true MONO (left and right merged into one channel) audio. Why the need for this? Some users may have broken speakers/headphones or si...
