The VideoLAN Forums

The first one is that the title needs to always display above the control bar when in full screen. Different resolution video's all display the title at the bottom, but some get blocked by the toolbar when its up. The second is that I would like to display the File Name as the title, not the Title i...

And how would I get that to launch with one click to load the media library completely into the playlist and start playing on random?

What I think I'm going to have to end up doing is creating a folder that has two hard-linked shortcuts (shell links) and just load that folder and have the 2+ sub folders expand/sort upon loading into the playlist. Would I be able to have those two folders sort alphabetically or will it do it in ser...

Oh god, media library... I hate those things. Media libraries are resource hogs and tend to skip recently added files and otherwise problematic (like wanting to replace the playlist when your merely browsing).

After the reinstall of windows I even tried the EXACT same shortcut that was working prior to the reinstall, it no longer worked and new shortcuts don't do it either.

Not true. Maybe it was windows feeding it the files, but it DID open the shortcut to my movies folder.

I have a folder with various shortcuts in it. That folder gets loaded onto my taskbar as a toolbar. I've always been able to just drag and drop the Movies folder shortcut into VLC and it would load all the movies. I just reinstalled Windows 7, VLC and other programs. Now when I try and drag that sho...
