The VideoLAN Forums

Okay let me explain. I want my VLC to look like the one on the VLC homepage. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

What I mean by this is that I want there to be the video (DirectX Output) separate from the buttons such as play/pause, stop etc.

Anybody know how to do this?

-Thanks

Use --no-wx-embed if using the command-line. Or go to the preferences, in Interfaces --> Main interfaces --> wxWidgets, and uncheck "Embed video in interface".
Then restart vlc for the change to take effect.

Note that the wxWidgets interface is not considered as a skin, but as a different interface.

Thanks a lot!
