VLC Permanents Bookmarks

This VLC extension allows you to save bookmarks for your media files and store them permanently.

Overview

The default Custom Bookmarks of vlc cannot be stored permanently without save a playlist file. If you close the media file, the bookmarks will disappear. So we need a bookmark management extension to store them permanently.

Installation

Create a directory extensions at this location if it doesn't exists, then download the vlc_permanets_bookmarks.lua file and place it in:

  • Windows (all users): program_files\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions\
  • Windows (current user): %APPDATA%\vlc\lua\extensions\
  • Linux (all users): /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/
  • Linux (current user): ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/
  • Mac OS X (all users):/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/extensions/
  • Mac OS X (current user): /Users/user_name/Library/Application\ Support/org.videolan.vlc/lua/extensions/

Change program_files to the path of your vlc program change user_name to your username.

Usage

Start extension:

  • Start vlc and open a media like video, audio and even network stream
  • Click on the menu View > Bookmarks or VLC > Extension > Bookmarks on Mac OS X
  • And start adding bookmarks like the default Custom Bookmarks of vlc but permanently stored on file closure

Feature

  • To associate each bookmark file with the respective media this extension use a basic Hash algorithm, so that it works even if the media file is moved or renamed, as long as its content is not changed
