Mouse scroll in VLC fast forward and increase volume in the same time

I encounter a weird issue with recent VLC version and I am not able to find information about this problem.



When I scroll using the mouse wheel during a video, it fast forward the video and increase the volume in the same time it (reciprocally rewind and decrease volume).



Before < some update > the scroll simply decreased and increased volume.



When I go in Preferences > Hotkeys there no mention of mouse wheel.



I am probably missing something obvious but anyone know where I can find the option to correct this problem ?

  • Is the volume control focused? If it is your scrolling action may be affecting the volume slider also.

    How is the "mouse wheel scroll" configured? Touchpads don't have "normal" mouse wheels and it may be captured incorrectly as something else. I use something called "Autohotkey" and it has a feature that tells me exactly what the computer sees my "mouse scroll" as, but I think the details are too much for a comment.

Enable Gestures then you can use Click (and hold mouse button) and move slightly right to skip 10 seconds, click (hold) and left to skip backwards 10 seconds.



The 10 second skip CAN be altered in the Hotkey Settings > Short Jump Length > enter required skip length.

You're all welcome :)



[EDIT]



My mistake, I was searching for a fix for the crappy 'new' video scan with mousewheel so must of got confused.
As to OPs issue, no real idea but after a quick search, I can't find anyone else that is having this issue.



Only thing I can think is that with newer versions (3.0.1) then on the Configure Hotkeys menu, there is a pair of options, one to define both horizontal and vertical axis of VLC (vertical / volume and horizontal / seek) for mousewheel, unlike the version shown only seems to have 1 axis option (at the bottom of the screenshot).



As an interim 'fix', Gestures can be used, while not as convenient as mousewheel, it should work.



Click + Up / Down = Volume Up / Down in 5% increments.
