Likely a silly question but the reason I ask is because firefox also has the ability to have a always on top player, but more importantly it's borderless and can be resized and moved anywhere without needing the title bar. Whereas VLC has the title bar that can't be hidden https://i.imgur.com/DXd1Aa...

It is kind of silly when software designers stubbornly refuse to add a feature simply because they can't understand the merit of it. I don't know if that's what's going on here, but that is what it seems like. Many people desire this feature. I'm not saying you should drop everything and get to wor...

I love using VLC always on top paired with a good old fashioned Ctrl + H to hide the controls.

Curious if it's possible to hide the title bar?

Would look awesome to have a borderless player!

Selecting a list of files plays in random order, is this VLC or Windows fault? 1. This has been happening for a very very long time, I just finally made a video. 2. My windows and VLC are both up to date 3. There is no random setting turned on. Video showing the issue: [url]https://streamable.com/za...

It would be awesome if you have time to work on this. I certainly can. Just a quick background on myself, I'm a graphic designer and can do html/css so that's the extent of my coding knowledge. (not great, but I may be able to grasp the VLC programming if explained well enough) If you don't mind sh...

Here's a quick Photoshop of what I'm looking for:



Thank you

VLC always launches in a windowed mode, the goal is to launch in maximized mode (not full screen)

I've seemed to try every combination of settings but it doesn't seem to work. Has been an issue for the last few versions.

Thanks in advance

VLC 3.0.6
Windows 10 - Ver.1809

Oh I see, I've never shown the playlist so I would have thought others like myself would like to throw a playlist on then just leaving the cover art on display. Would be nice in instances where you're having a party or something and if you wanted to show the cover art on the screen. Or retail displa...

Simple as that, when you're playing music let the cover art be able to be displayed in full screen.

Thanks for your consideration

Is this a Windows 10 issue or VLC issue?

Cover art is not treated as a video.

Yes of course, I should have rephrased my comment:

Would the function of enabling full screen cover art when playing a file be something that is too technically challenging to integrate in a future update?

VLC just not feelin it or what?

VLC 3.0.6

It's great when you see an awesome scene in a video and screenshot it, the file is saved with the date format: vlcsnap-2019-02-27-12h00m00s123.png However, what if you wanted to know exactly where that frame was? Request: Screenshot with file name and time stamp Example: My Video-mp4-00-22-05-23.png...

Ok thanks! I actually uninstalled that update as I was getting constant Blue screen crashes just from regular use. Hmmm. Interesting that I'm only getting this audio error AFTER removing this update, it's like something must be lingering because VLC worked perfectly in Build 17134.407 before the upd...

But it usually takes at least...

Hi, You can disable "resize interface to video size" in "tool > preference > interface". when open vlc it should restore its last window position/size Yeah it's actually disabled and it continues to open in a smaller window, so I guess every time you login to windows you have to...

Double click the title bar.

Lol thanks it's not like we all don't know that. I should have stated "launch VLC maximized" for those mad lads

Hi everyone, Thanks in advance if you could help with this. I'm looking to open in a maximized window, like this: https://i.imgur.com/ymAXWe7.png Here's what happens when I open a video: https://i.imgur.com/9lYT4dF.png Is there a setting needed to allow VLC to open in a maximized window?

Hey there, thank you so much for your help. I was watching a video and scrambled to open the messages windows after the error happened. (Unfortunately didn't have it open before it happened so I'll try again, but if this helps great) Windows 10 Home 64 Bit - Version 1803 - Build 17134.345 VLC Vetina...

Windows 10 - everything up to date - drivers all up to date. This has happened maybe 5 times now. So what happens is during playback all of a sudden the audio shuts off and the video continues to play. I usually hit pause, jump back a few seconds and hit play but it still has no audio. But after a f...

Subtitles or Captions ? that's different Hi InTheWings, thanks so much for helping out, So I'm used to hitting the key command "V" to bring up subtitles. Often times the text looks like this (never looked like this in VLC 2.x) But let's entertain that idea of captions. Say it was captions...

The font looks like a squished Courier New, despite the font settings.

Subtitle example:


Settings:


VLC 3.0.4 - Windows 10 (1803)

tools -> preferences -> Show settings [all] -> Video -> Fullscreen video output

Thank you, this works for full screen, is there one for maximized?

Basically, my problem is that I want it to open to whichever last size my window was.

My settings reset when updating to 3 (despite having selected keep settings)

Is there any way to restore this so media always opens in a maximized window?
