Media Players - Shortcuts Part 3 - Tech Tuesday

Hey all! How are you doing? I just recalled those pending shortcut post. This is the third post in this series of shortcuts for applications, etc. for your computers, simple, short ways to little quicken some things. So today's topic of shortcuts is Media Player, like WinAmp, Media Player Classic and VLC Media Player. What made me to post the shortcuts of Media Players? If you guys remember , I posted on Super Sunday about the Media Players only, with the links to download some cool ones. That is what made me post the shortcuts of them.
