Scrub video playback in VLC media player
Authored by: UberFu on Sep 24, '08 09:00:24AM

Too bad those of us without a laptop [and trackpad] can't scrub though videos like in Quicktime or any other video player to mention it_ You'd think that would be a basic "standard feature" for VLC_

None the less glad to know there's a new version out_ Pulled down 0.8.6i for stability fixes a couple of weeks ago_

You forgot to say that you can change sound volume by doing vertically ;)

Or people with mighty mouse or any other side scroll enabled mouse. They aren't that odd to own, especially if you're on a mac that isn't terribly old...

Or as noted in my comment on the hint, basically any mouse with a scroll wheel and the use of the Shift key -- which tells OS X to scroll sideways.

Slow playback on G4
Authored by: SuperCrisp on Sep 25, '08 11:44:57AM

Since reliability was mentioned, G4 users may want to drop back to 0.8.6i until 0.9.3 comes out. They forgot to enable Altivec optimizations on the latest build of 0.9.2. It took me awhile to figure out that this was why VLC was suddenly stuttering on my old iBook, so I thought I'd offer a heads-up here.
