preventing filename being displayed on playback

Postby ozster123 » 10 Feb 2009 10:44

Hi,

Is it possible to prevent the filename being displayed during playback. This happens in v0.9.8a, it is displayed and then faded out. I was hoping there was a command line switch available to turn this off. Any ideas?

Thanks,
John

Tools -> Preferences

Tick 'All' in bottom left corner

Then Video -> untick 'Show media title on video'

Click on the Save button.
Done.

Sorry forgot to say that I am using the JVLC api to control playback. Thats why I was looking for a command line switch that I could pass as part of the startup arguments.
