You need to use some external helper to move the VLC borderless video window by a mouse. You could try KDE Mover-Sizer (Alt + Left-MB drag&drop) and/or NiftyWindows (Ctrl + Right-MB) whether they work for you on Windows 8/10. They work well on XP.--video-x=<integer [-2147483648 .. 2147483647]>
Video X coordinate
You can enforce the position of the top left corner of the video
window (X coordinate).
--video-y=<integer [-2147483648 .. 2147483647]>
Video Y coordinate
You can enforce the position of the top left corner of the video
window (Y coordinate).
Why?You cannot move it with the mouse, no.
There are many skinned programs and skinned elements of programs that don't look like a traditional Windows UI but can still be moved around the screen and resized as one would expect. I'm not sure what having a handle has to do with anything.Because you don't have a handle to pull.
As the OP mentioned, the exact functionality requested works natively in MPC-HC, so that's not true.You need title bar to pull around window.
dojima, how much time have you put into developing this app? Would you like to learn how to program this specific feature and send the code to the devs?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 work on it immediately, but taking it into consideration and perhaps adding it to the roadmap seems entirely reasonable. The feature already mostly exists; all that needs to be done is to make it possible for the window to be moved around and resized without resorting to arcane methods.
