What can VLC do?

This area of the wiki contains a list with the possibilities videolan gives you. It was made to help ppl better realize the potential vlc has. Some entries will simply mention the possibility, others try to explain how to do it as well. Let me start by apologising for my horrible spelling, but i hope you will be able to decipher the texts anyway :)

How to enable/use subtitles

If vlc have detected any sort of subtitles availeble, you will be able to turn them on under the menu: Video->Subtitles track->Track 1

How tu adjust picture brightness/colors/contrast etc..

If you are using the wxwindows userinterface its quite simple:

You can adjust the typical values to tweak the picture of your video source by turning ont he extended GUI. This is done in the menu: Settings->Extended GUI. That will give you some extended control options for the video picture as well as an equalizer for the audio.

IF you use a skinned version of vlc, and thereby are using the skins2 interface it is a little more complicated. You need to enter the preference menu: Settings->Peeferences. Once you have the preferences window open you go to: Video->Filters->Image adjust. Here u can adjust the different values. Note before they take effect u need to turn on the "Image adjust" filter in: Video->Filters
