VLC Player Trick

Hi guys!
Here I am back again with another.. well it's not basically a trick or hack.. but exploration of VLC media player. In this blog, I will show you how can you make VLC player capture your screen and run into an infinite loop. So let's get started (screen shots are provided for easy demonstration)

Step 1: Open VLC player
Step 2: Press CTRL + N. Hit return
            You will see a window like this:

 Step 3: Type 'screen://' (without single quotes) in the address field
                
Step 4: Press the 'Play' button at the bottom this window and see what happens
VLC will capture your screen and it will keep shrinking it. 

FYI: I am still looking for the keyboard short cut to stop this loop, but till now no Luck!! So click on the close button at the top right corner of VLC window to get rid of it.

If you get any, please post it as a comment.

Yours Truly,
