Changing the font-size in Playlist (and few other things)

[shirker]

As first, I must say that I totally like the new VLC media player's outlook, but especially I like that now VLC remembers both window-positions (from Main and Playlist window), and so on and on. Thanks much for this update !!


Though it is true, that there are few things in this latest version of VLC, that I don't fully understand, especially regarding its Playlist window. For instance, sometimes when I open some playlist file (with .m3u extension), VLC just opens it and adds it under the "General" section, but that's all, it doesn't start playing the items. However, sometimes it does, and it does it without changing anything in VLC's configuration. Then another thing would be that the "Preparse" command doesn't remove the paths from all items. And further, I also don't know, what's the purpose of "Services discovery" menu options etc. although for these, I will probably find-out after searching the forum.


But my main question about a minor font-related "problem" is - how to change the font-size in VLC media player's Playlist (of course, if it is possible at all) ?? It's just too big for my taste, i.e., I much prefer the look/size of font used in previous version of VLC.


OS: Windows XP Pro SP2


Thanks in advance, shirker

are you talking about the wxWindows interface or skins interface ? (concernign the playlist font).

i don't think its possible to change the wxWindows interface's font (unless you change the windows default font size). The skin's font can be changed in the skin's description file.
