The VideoLAN Forums

I've noticed that when VLC Player isn't playing anything it compacts into a much smaller version of itself. Personally, I find this annoying. Is there any way to keep it from doing this?

I think what you mean, is that vlc doesn't show up the video window, only the interface.

Btw, what is your operating system ? I know of windows & linux interface (which are now wxwidgets, and will be replaced by qt4 in some time) but i don't know of macosX interface :/

In this forum, it's likely to be Windows

Well, it is not possible with the actual interface but may be possible with next interface.

sorry i never read forum titles :/
shame on me

Also note that the skins interface does not resize when the video ends.
