Out of uncountable number of tips and tricks from media player, let us discuss only five basic features a beginner has to know in other to improve his/her capability to explore through that player easily. You may just be watching movies or listening to music but you don't know some of this player features actually, well i guess after sighting those 5 basic options of VLC media Player, you will actually fall in love with it. 5 Basic Useful Options In VLC Media Player Take a Snapshot while Playing Video Most at times when you are watching a nice movie and you totally like some part of the scene as a photo or one of your best actor/actress is in play out of which you can't get the photo of the action in progress, then you can easily take a picture at the moment you feel necessary to do so. How to Take screenshot in VLC media Player Well taking a screenshot on VLC is pretty much simple with the following steps; [img]http://3.bp..com/-xZUsHOIWPYA/VvKIIZxd_CI/AAAAAAAAAsI/K47sU43EsJggYLpjFtgcq8F8OsRZW-M9w/s1600/how%2Bto%2Btake%2Ba%2Bsnapshot%2Busing%2Bvlc%2Bmedia%2Bplayer.JPG[/img] Open the video which you want to take the screenshot as above Go to View and select Advanced control After ticking the Advanced control option, you will have a menu just above the media control keys Now click the camera button to snap your picture inside the video The picture will automatically saved to a desired folder of your choice To select the path or directory where the picture wil be saved, Go to Tools>> Preferences and select Video tab to configure as below [img]https://1.bp..com/-8ks-9_MZ2Vg/VvKWvBOmrwI/AAAAAAAAAsc/LEnt_USEYIoBuNR1fj7_rsU_Zk3x9qHDA/s1600/set%2Bup%2Bpath%2Bfor%2Bsaving%2Bvlc%2Bsnap.JPG[/img] Play Video Frame By Frame This is another important feature by VLC media Player of which you are seeing it via the advanced control key but not considering it. Well do you know sometimes when you try to snap a picture out of a certain video you need to pause before grabbing the actual photo, in that case, when you pause, you won't be able to get the desired image in a video because you did not aimed the pause correctly to snap what you need, then i guess frame by frame will help you do the job easily here. Sometimes you need to observe something in a movie but the scene is moving so fast that you can't be able to see then you can slow it down using frame by frame feature to observe anything within.

You can crop your video i.e. adjusting the video screen size to proportionate with your computer screen for you to watch your movies nice and comfortable.
