Have you tried to add bookmarks?
See Settings -> Bookmarks...
And then clik on add at A and B
You can then use these bookmarks to play again or to extract this part via the Wizard (File -> Wizards...)

Hi Yoann!

Oh - no - never checked it because I don't associate "Bookmarks" with In/Out Point settings - thanks!!

looks interesting - but I think about how to use this function...

--> I have a playlist and have to set in-points for every movie to start and out points to stopp

--> how can I use the bookmarks to play a file between in and out?

(If I have to playback movies from 10 DVD's for one evening I don't want to transcode them only to cut off start trailers and test bars...)

best regards

Danko

I want to 2nd these requests:
- simple hotkey repeat a-b like available on most dvd players
- saveable from a to b positions associated to playlist entries

I just remembered something that could help you:

Code: Select all

vlc movie1.avi :start-time=12 :stop-time=42 movie2.avi :start-time=26 :stop-time=64 ...
This command-line will play the first movie from the 12th sec to the 42th sec, and so on...

It is still not very convenient to setup, but could help you though.
