When watching a video in VLC media player, there will be instances when you want to go through the video frame by frame. There may be any number of reasons for it like wanting to capture the perfect moment in the video, watch a video frame by frame, etc.
For instance, while watching a video on YouTube, you can go through it frame by frame by simply pausing the video and then pressing the keys , and . to move backward and forward respectively. Just like with YouTube, VLC also has a built in feature to scrub through or go through a video in VLC frame by frame. In case you are wondering, here’s how to go through a video frame by frame in VLC.
Going through a video in VLC frame by frame is pretty easy and straightforward. All you have to do is press a single VLC keyboard shortcut. While watching a video, pause the video by hitting the Spacebar.
After pausing the video, press the key E and you will see the next frame.

To let you know the same, VLC will show “Next Frame” in the upper right corner.

You can only move forward while going through the video in VLC frame by frame. If you didn’t see the frame you want then go back the video manually, pause it, and then go through it frame by frame by pressing the E key repeatedly until you see the frame you want.
Of course, you don’t necessarily have to pause the video to view it frame by frame in VLC. However, pausing the video gives you much better control.
If the frame by frame shortcut key in VLC didn’t work then it might have been changed in VLC settings. To see what hotkey has been assigned, navigate to “Tools > Preferences > Hot Keys” and search for “Next Frame.”
VLC frame by frame – Select preferences option
This action will show you the current hotkey assigned to view a video in VLC frame by frame. If there is no hotkey assigned, then simply double-click on the right panel and assign one.

Alternatively, you can also use the advanced controls to scrub through a video frame by frame in VLC. By default, VLC will not show the advanced controls.
To show the advanced controls, navigate to the “View” and then click on the option “Advanced Controls.”
Select advanced controls
As soon as you enable Advanced Controls, you will see additional controls just above the regular playback controls. Here, click on the Next Frame icon to go through the video in VLC frame by frame.

That being said, here are some of the best Google Spreadsheet tips that every Google Sheets user should know to get most out of Google Docs.
Google Spreadsheets Tips

When working on a spreadsheet, you might want to display certain columns and rows always on the screen. For instance, when you have the data like serial numbers and months, you might want to display those columns and rows so that you won’t lose track of them even while you are scrolling.

Generally, you can insert any image you want by simply selecting the option “Insert > Image.” When you use this option, the image will appear on top of the cells in the spreadsheet.
As you can tell, the above option is useless if you want to insert an image into a cell. To insert an image into a cell, select the cell and use one of the below functions.
=image("URL of the image",1) – resizes the image to fit inside the cell, maintaining aspect ratio. This is the default option when you use the =image formula without the mode(1, 2, 3) option.
=image("URL of the image",2) – stretches or compresses the image to fit inside the cell, ignoring aspect ratio.
=image("URL of the image",3)Â – leaves the image at original size, which may cause cropping.

Best Manga Website to Read Manga Online
Note: to access the website, simply copy the URL from the sub-heading, paste it in your browser’s address bar and press the enter button.
1. MangaStream.com
MangaStream is one of the most popular manga website to read manga online. The good thing is, the guys at MagaStream actually translate some of the popular manga like One Piece, One-Punch Man, Fairy Tail, Black Butler, The Seven Deadly Sins, etc. However, unlike other websites, MangaStream only hosts a small number of chapters of the manga they are currently translating. This is done in order to respect and provide support for publishers and creator.
So, if you want to read latest manga release as soon as it is released (sometimes, it is published even before it is released in Japan) then do give MangaStream a try.
