In VLC player, how do I clear a playlist filled with many videos in one shot (instead of deleting one by one)?

Question

When one has many clips in the playlist, how do i delete them all in one go? Curently, I press delete 22 times in a row to delete 22 videos! I rather use the same colour/brightness settings that's why I reuse instead of closing the player and opening up a new one.

Answer 1

You can select all the clips with your mouse, then hit the DEL button to delete the selected clips.

Answer 2

If you're talking about VLC in a window, then with the playlist open, press CTRLA to select all the elements in the playlist, then press DEL to delete all tracks ;)

Answer 3

Other than with CTRL+A, you can also drag with your mouse around the files, and press DEL.

Dragging and dropping also works well, to add new files.
