[GUIDE] Awesome VLC Media Player Tips & Tricks

========================
INFO:
The simple design and user-friendly interface makes VLC one of the most popular media players in the world. Most users only use VLC for its lightweight video playing functionality. However, VLC comes with more powerful tools you might not know about.

Converting Video Format
You can use VLC Media Player to change the video format of your videos. VLC is capable of converting most video formats. The conversion feature can also be used to apply effects and filters to your videos.

Add Effects and Filters
VLC has in-built video effects that you can use to make fine adjustments to your videos. These effects can also be used to adjust network videos and live streams. The video effects allow you to change the hue, contrast, color, and even orientation of your video.

The video effects can be found in the effects and filters settings. You can open these via the tools menu, or by pressing Ctrl + E on your keyboard. Then simply switch to the Video Effects tab.

Download Subtitles
With VLsub you can quickly download and add subtitles to your films. Finding subtitles for your movies or shows is as simple as searching for it.

Trim Videos and Save Clips
One of the more useful tools available in VLC is the ability to trim videos. You can use this feature to remove boring sections of your clip or shorten it to only show a specific part. Although there are multiple ways to trim clips with VLC the easiest option is through the Convert / Save tool.

Bookmarks
Bookmarks allow you to save locations in your movies and shows for you to come back to later. This feature is incredibly useful if you get distracted midway through a movie, or if there is a specific clip you want to come back to later.

Press Ctrl + B on your keyboard while watching a video to bring up the bookmark options.

Audio Effects Equalizer
Just like video effects you also have options to adjust the audio of your media. The audio effects aren’t extensive, however they do offer a great range of customization. These effects work on all videos playing through VLC, including YouTube videos and streams.

You can open the audio effects menu via the Effects & Filters menu in the Tools heading.

Customize Interface
The base design of VLC is basic. Although limited, you also have some options for customizing the UI of the player. You can locate some of the interface options through the View options from the top bar.

Watch YouTube and Twitch Streams
Along with supporting typical video formats, you can also use VLC to watch YouTube and Twitch. This is a great option for users who don’t want to have too many browsers open or prefer using audio and video filters to improve their viewing experience.

Open the Media options and select “Open Network Stream”.

Screen Recorder
VLC Media Player also works as a screen recorder for your desktop. The features are limited, however, it will work fine for basic use. VLC will automatically record your entire desktop. This can be an issue if you have multiple monitors and only want to capture one. As an alternative, you can use OBS Studio for more features and control.

Go to “Media” and select “Open Capture Device”.

Set the capture mode to “Desktop” and set the frame rate you want to record your screen with. The typical FPS used is 30 or 60.

Click the arrow at the bottom and select “Convert”.

Either select a preset from the drop-down or create a custom preset. MP4 is the most commonly used format.

Click “Browse” to choose a file name and location for your recording.

Confirm your settings by pressing the Start button at the bottom.

Your screen will automatically start recording. When you have finished recording you can use the stop button in VLC to end the recording.

Open Recent
One of the better quality of life features in VLC is the ability to open recent media. This feature works for reopening local videos, streams, and YouTube content. You can use this video for quickly relaunching a video if you’ve accidentally closed it.

Click “Media” and then place your cursor over the “Open Recent Media” option.

Your 10 most recent videos will be shown here, click one to select it. Your video will reopen. There are also keyboard shortcuts you can use to quickly reopen previously viewed content.

Speed Up and Slow Down Video
Adjustable playback speed has become a popular feature for video content. YouTube and other video platforms give you the ability to speed up and slow down videos. This is also possible by using VLC Media Player.

Listen to Radio / Podcast
VLC also works as a platform to subscribe and listen to podcasts. You can directly import all podcast episodes to a show using the RSS Feed.

Find the RSS Feed link for the podcast you want to listen to, and copy it.
