Force libvlc to don't hide mouse cursor
Posted: 18 Jul 2018 07:13
I'm developing a video stream software, I'm using libvlc and qt-vlc for playing videos from network stream. Everything is good just one problem. When VlcMediaPlayer starts to playing, the mouse pointer hide over VlcWidgetVideo widget.
If mouse move around application it will be shown but only on the VlcWidgetVideo there are no mouse
My simple code is like that:
Now, my question is that: How can I force qt-vlc to don't hide pointer? I want to mouse pointer be visible always. My development environment is:
Note 1:
Two points:
Playing same stream video with vlc media player on same computer doesn't hide the cursor!
When I try to simulate the mouse pointer with a shape in QLabel the player widget flush by repeat
Note 2:
I dropped using of qt-vlc and used libvlc directly, But no changes! Mouse hide and some times it appear as a single black pixel
Note 3:
Running same code on debian 9 works fine

My simple code is like that:
Code: Select all
auto _instance = new VlcInstance(VlcCommon::args(), this);
auto _player = new VlcMediaPlayer(_instance);
auto playerWidget = new VlcWidgetVideo(_player, this);
auto _media = new VlcMedia(mediaUrl.toString(), _instance);
_player->setVideoWidget(playerWidget);
_player->play();
// mediaUrl is type of QUrl
_player->open(_media);- CentOS 7.2 on VirtualBox
