Is there anyway to force VLC to remain in full screen mode... even when no video's are playing?

Two cases...

1 - launch with no video specified on the command line - screen opens 'mid-sized' until you play a video
2 - launch with a video specified on the command line... and the video ends... then the screen returns to mid-sized

thanks for any help.

Resize it to the size you want, and disable resizing.

- what about starting and staying in FullScreen On mode as commanded by the RC interface command...
FullScreen On

- While video playing no controls or menu bars show but when video ends the commands re-appear on the screen...

- Is there anyway to force the controls and menu bars not to appear when no video is playing?

Thank you again for your great help !
