You can capture screenshots using Ctrl + C. PotPlayer can be set to stay on top of other windows. That should be enough for basic playback, but there are a ton of other shortcuts, you can view them by right-clicking anywhere in the player pane > About > Keyboard Shortcuts. Increase or decrease the volume with the Up and Down arrow keys. Rewind or fast-forward with the Left and Right arrow keys. Use the Space bar to pause, play the media. Want to change the window size quickly? Tap the number keys from 1-4 to switch between 0.5x, 1x, 1.5x and 2x. I remembered most of the keyboard shortcuts from my previous time with it (subtitle delay, adjusting the window size, volume, brightness, contrast, etc). One of my favorite features in PotPlayer is that it remembers the file playback position by default, even for online videos. Maybe it's an issue with MPC's settings, but I still prefer it over anything else. MPV and PotPlayer on the other hand were able to handle all of them without any hiccups. On a side note, MPC failed to play the audio in a couple of MKV videos (which I had downloaded from streaming services using IDM), but was able to play the rest. And the player supports YouTube playlists too which is pretty cool. Hit Ctrl + U and paste the URL to begin watching the online video. In addition to local media, PotPlayer can be used to play streaming content from services like YouTube. That's a lot of formats, and these work fine without the additional codec that it recommends.
