About VLC media player and its shortcuts

VLC plays everything, and its keyboard covers what you want while watching: playback and seeking by different amounts, volume, subtitle and audio track selection, and fullscreen. The variable seek commands are its quiet strength, since jumping by three seconds and by a minute are different keys.

VLC lets you rebind every command in its preferences, and its interface differs between platforms. Shortivo publishes the Windows list.
