very short jump forward and backward as skin buttons?

Postby thebunnyrules » 20 Dec 2017 20:59

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make a as small as possible interface that always stays on top for playing back a TTS piped wav. I just need 3 buttons: rewind, pause and fastforward (preferably very short jumps). I was able to get the QT interface to be somewhat compact but I hit a wall: I was stuck with a width of around 200px by 80px. I couldn't get rid of the menu because I soon as I selected minimal interface, the menu would go but so would the buttons and if I have buttons, I'm stuck with the menu.

I've been looking at trying to make a skin to get around this.

Using this as a reference: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins2-create.html, I was unable to find any rewind or fast forward functions in the action list. I was unable to find vlc.nextFrame() but no previousFrame().

Is the reference list incomplete or is it that the skins 2 just doean't support the rewind/fastforward actions I'm looking for? Is there anyway of getting around this?

If not, is there anyway of hacking the vlc-qt-interface.conf file to get rid of the menubar and make a smaller player?
