Hello,

How to change VLC playback controls size?

Since version 3.0.0 they are soooo huge that taking almost half of the screen in full screen mode if activated accidentally .



Thanks!

Try grabbing the controller in the bottom-right corner. This should allow you to resize it.

I've got the same problem only there is no controller in the bottom right corner. I can't watch anything like this WTF?

What do you mean? There is no "control" in the bottom right corner. Just Use your mouse to resize the fullscreen controller, like any other window.

I have the same issue. the 'lucent controller' is huge. It happened after an VLC update.
I can grab the edges on the left and right but only make the controller bigger.

- I removed VLC and all lingering files. Downloaded VLC and installed the latest version. Issue persists.

Any solution for this issue?

Reset preferences as described here, this should help: https://wiki.videolan.org/VSG:ResetPrefs/#macOS

I noticed while there is not any UI for this feature, the window is resizable - just gotta really get down on that corner
