    I have this too, this is exactly the problem other's have described where apps that don't respect the high DPI choices.

    For VLC, this issue was discussed in the forums last year, and according to the last post a fix was imminent (they've already made a similar patch for OSX) but doesn't appear to have happened yet: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=97895 and there's a page here that you might find interesting too: http://www.anandtech.com/show/7939/scaling-windows-the-dpi-arms-race/3
