Some useful tips coming out of the discussion on VLC keystrokes.


Would someone tell me if you can skip directly to the first and last files in a playlist please?


Thanks,


Ray.

I also would like to know (using VLC) if you can go to a specific place in a file) so let's say you've been listening or watching a file, but don't have time to take it all in: can you issue a command so you can pick up right where you left off the next time? You can do this in Winamp (may be other players where this can be done) so am wondering if VLC will allow for that?

Hi,
You can in films some times also in audio.

Okay...so what's the magic command to go to where you want to go in a film...or whatever?
Tom Kaufman

You should be able to in most files. I don't think you'll get any feedback from your screen-reader though. Can't recall the keystroke offhand ... ctrl-t maybe? It'll be in the list of VLC keyboard commands, anyway. You have to enter in the time value.

If you buy the Leasey scripts for Jaws you definitely can do this!

No feedback from the screen reader, huh! Well...not good!
Tom Kaufman

No, probably not ... but you don't really need it, do you?

Hi,
Where do you find them?

Buying Leasey seems like overkill just to be able to do that. Not really
sure how it's supposed to help. Never did really get into the idea of trying
it out and now my JAWS is a bit past it so doubtless I'd have to upgrade
that as well. Does Leasey have specific VLC-geared features?

If I'm going to be able to confirm what time I have set...yes!
Tom Kaufman

www.hartgen.org check out leasey advanced. Lots of great shortcuts,
and other things in there along with some great vlc scripts.

Ah yeah, I see. Well, perhaps if you use the touch cursor or object navigation 9can't remember what screen-reader you are using) you willb e able tos ee this in formation. While vlc has a ton of useful keyboard commands, screen-readers don't seem to do well in all the dialogues/screens of the programme.
