Not used Vlc since i switched to MPC-HC x64 several years ago.....it has an auto shut down function which is handy for me as i have Tinnitus and have a film running in the background when im trying to get to sleep, i find windows sleep function does not always work unlike mpc which will shutdown my pc when the film is finished....8 times out of 10 ive fallen to sleep within the first 10 minutes, some times it takes 2 films.
