Nice topic name.

You should be able to get 0.8.6i from our download page.

You need to reset the preferences using the provided script.

Or you'll have to wait for 0.9.3 scheduled for next week.

I sooo totally agree. Don't get me wrong, I love VLC as much as the next guy, and the new codec support etc is great, but WHY did you have to mess with the interface??? It seems to me that people change stuff for the sake of change. Why mess with perfection? I hate the new full screen pop up controller and the new look in general - it's plain ugly!. Simplicity is the key to beauty and the new version just don't do it for me. I am also having playback issues, jerky frames, vision starting 5 seconds after audio (if I hit back it plays properly the second time) as well as various other issues. Sincere thanks, but no thanks. I too will be reverting to the previous version.

Running Dual Core 3Ghz with 512 Video and 3GB Ram.

there is no ui changes in 0.9... The fullscreen controller has been around for 3 years or so. Note, you are not forced to update to the latest version.

Hi I have a problem with the new version, whenever in fullscreen mode the control bar at the bottom keeps popping back into view and wont stay gone. Is this a bug or is there a setting ive overlooked to make it stay hidden when the mouse is not being moved?

On Mac OS X ?

same problem under windows, plus when I use the bar to jump to another part of the video the picture gets stuck for 3-4 seconds

Fixed for Windows/Qt4 interface in 0.9.3+ AFAIK. What version are you using? 0.9.4 is released:

Arite.

thanks the latest update fixed it

The playlist doesn't work at all...
I try to drag a file onto it and it just shows me a red x.

This is possibly the most abrupt and disturbing derailing of a great product I have seen...

Remember when there were 151 Pokemon?
Remember MySpace?
Remember when there were only two genders?

Somewhere along the line, somebody comes along and just wants to shake everything up and destroy our dreams.
Why must it be this way?

And now, a moment of silence for VLC... R.I.P.

Dude, don't revive threads which are more than 10 years old and totally unrelated to your problem.
