Left/Right Balance, or way to toggle between channels?

Postby vlc_viewer » 12 Mar 2015 09:38

Is there a way (with advanced config options) to add a way to bind a key to go from left channel only to right channel only?

So I can push a button to play only the right channel, another button to play only the left channel and a third to play both channels in stereo as normal.

What I mean is to play one channel through one speaker only (not playing the left channel for example through both speakers as a mono signal (as in the "audio > stereo mode" menu))

If not does anyone know a media player that plays flac where I can do this?

Using Windows 8.1

In Preferences, you have the option to customize Hotkeys.

It may be possible to customize Hotkeys so that you can toggle back and forth between channels.

Here is a link to VLC documentation on Hotkeys:

Thanks,

Unfortunately I looked at already and there is no action for balance. :( or cycle channels.
