VLC interactive zoom level?

Is there any way to edit/tune interactive zoom level in VLC ? it seems that the default zoom is 200%. I would like to make it 150 %.

I found something here Fine control over zoom and aspect ratio in VLC player

but this cmd procedure seems complex when I want to play multiple videos and also this procedure does not work.

thanks in advance.

You can change the zoom level by dragging the white slider up and down, it's inside the red square on the left, about 1/4 of the way down on those imgur images in the replies.

It's super easy to miss, especially on a bright background, but there's a zoom-level meter below the bottom-left corner of the zoom controls - which allows you to easily control the zoom-level.

zoom-level controls

  • Press Ctrl+P
  • At the bottom left under Show settings select All
  • In Video, set Zoom video to 1,5

Advanced Preferences

Works as intended for me, even with multiple files.

Zoom to 150%
