@first: i love your work!

Please give me any possibility to show the Filename in Fullscreen mode.

i really tried to find a solution to my problem. It looks like there were many options to do that. my filename are like that XXX - YYY - ZZZ. Putting them in a playlist shows, using OSD shows yyy - zzz - xxx, using a lua like Sampler_PG makes zzz - yyy of it. xxx is missing. The Problem seems that vlc uses meta data for showing information on OSD. I just need the filename please.

The Marquee module does not work anymore, it is just usable for the % variables, the $ Variables are not longer usable.

The Option to show the filename in window decoration does not help in fullscreen mode.

The Fullscreen controller which shows the filename is not resizable, so i just see xxx - yyy - because the filenames are to long. I read that the fullscreen controls are that small for some reasons, that is ok for me, but please give me ANY option, please

i use osx

Hello,
You asked about displaying the time remaining, duration, etc... On top of the playing video. I used to really live that feature, and I have tried using the Time.lua extension but cannot get it to work. Any chance of it being fixed or put back in the marquee function anytime soon? Thanks for your hard work
