You know in powerdvd when you move the mouse to the top part of teh screen there is a drop adown control bar, is there one in VLC and if so how do i set it?

Press "i" on your keyboard.

If you like this feature, it can be set in preferences under interface, control interface and then select "interface showing control interface" and save. When you move the cursor to the top of the screen the interface will pop up, clicking anywhere on screen will make it disappear.

ok i go to control interface but i dont see "interface control showing control interface"

You may need to check Advanced Options at the bottom of the Preferences menu.
