VLC media player has basic support for mouse gestures.
Activation
To activate this feature, go to Preferences > All > Interface > Control Interfaces and check "Mouse gestures control interface". Then restart VLC.
Alternatively you can add "gestures" to the extraintf list (like this "vlc --extraintf gestures" ) when starting VLC from the command line, or manually write "gestures" in the "extra interface modules" field in the configuration window.
