Problem

Apparently VLC has an A-B repeat feature, but how do I use it? There's even a related feature request. I can't find any GUI controls for it (Windows VLC version 1.1.9) I am aware there is a possible command-line method, but I seek a more user-friendly GUI/keyboard solution. I ask specifically for VLC, but other free video players that support both mirroring (flipping horizontally) and A-B repeat are acceptable. Background info: I have a video of a dance performance I need to practice. A-B repeat to concentrate on a single part at a time Mirroring to make following it more natural
