Just came across these 2 nifty AHK scripts today and installed them.
One restores the old/proper VLC F11 (full screen) functionality, and gives you a "jump-to-time" function using Ctrl-t. I have used this and it seems to work OK.
The other apparently picks up URLs from the clipboard and puts them into the playlist. I am still trying to understand how this one works.
The author -
@JSLover - points out that the scripts are being updated from time to time.
