Can VLC get you from "point A" to "Point B" in a file? That's one of the things I loved (still love) about Winamp (and I'm not talking just about "hitting the arrow key and finding it manually) with Winamp, you can actually go to a certain spot in a file; this comes in handy...let's say you've been listening to a long program (and you can't finish right then and there) Winamp has the ability to let you see where you are in the file; then you can come right back to it the next time you want to listen to that particular show!
