Hello,

My application shortcut is:

vlc --open=/home/charles/channels.conf --video-on-top --zoom=0.5 --qt-minimal-view

And the "zoom" argument doesn't seem to work. The funny thing is that when I right-click the video and go to "Video » Zoom", menu entry "1:2 Half" is already selected. But if I click it, the video is reduced by half

Isn't that odd?

I found out why. You have to set autoscale off first: --no-autoscale. By default it is on.
