Usage

Open VLC

Open VLC with the interface enabled by searching in your apps "VLC with football gametime" or clicking the desktop shortcut.

Note: if you cannot find the shortcut...

Try opening VLC manually using the instructions for your OS: [Linux](./docs/linux.md#running-vlc-from-the-terminal), [Windows](./docs/windows.md#running-vlc-manually) or [Mac](./docs/mac.md).

Then, click View -> Football Gametime and save the kick off times for first and second halves. The gametime should be displayed at the top left corner of the video. You only need to save the kick off times once for each file (unless you change the name of the file).
