Hi, folks. I have to use a mac for work and recently had to use VLC for some of my tasks, and I'm having a hard time with things.
TL;DR: How do I see the total time of a video (not remaining time, just its total runtime), and how do I stop videos from auto-closing when they finish?
If I open a video it starts autoplaying. That's great. At the bottom of the screen is a slider that displays how long the video has been playing for. But, the little circle that indicates where in the video play we are is always stuck on the far right. So I can't see how long the video is or how far along in it I am. I also can't 'skip' around the video. If I click the slider it just takes me back to the start.
If I click the "time" to the right of the video, left or right click, nothing happens. If I double click it lets me choose a time to skip to, but since I don't know how long the video is I'm shooting in the dark.
If I enter in a time that's too long, the video closes automatically.
Also, if the video reaches the end of it's play, it closes.
