These would be the most important keystrokes: space Play/pause Shift + Left Arrow Jump 5 seconds back [ Slower (fine) ] Faster (fine) These would be good, too: = Normal rate Shift + Right Arrow Jump 5 seconds forward Alt + Left Arrow Jump 10 sec. back Alt + Right Arrow Jump 10 sec. forward Control + Left Arrow Jump 1 minute back Control + Right Arrow Jump 1 minute forward Apparently, something like this might be useful for looping part of a song I'm trying to play along with (or some speech I want to transcribe): start=240 #start time in seconds stop=560 #stop time in seconds vlc movie.avi --start-time $start --stop-time $stop --repeat Mike _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota [email protected] http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
