VLC comes pre-packed with the multiple instance option enabled. You can do a variety of other tasks like convert audio formats or cut video files in one VLC instance while playing something entertaining in another window. It allows you to keep your playback position in the original media file so you can continue it later. The feature comes to great use when there is a video or an audio file playing and you want to pause it and open a different media file. You can be playing two audio files or a video and an audio file at the same time. It can be used to access or play multiple media files simultaneously.


That means more than one player or player window can run and operate at the same time.

By default VLC Media Player is set to have multiple instances.
