Fullscreen On-Screen Controls

[ETMegabyte]

Hello,

One feature that would be nice is a seek bar, pause/play, fast forward, rewind, volume controls, etc in full screen mode when I move my mouse. The seek bar is the part that I'm most interested in. I know that I can use the hotkey "i" to bring up the interface and do it that way, but it just seems like an extra step that shouldn't be needed. I also use VLC on a machine hooked to a TV, and it doesn't have a keyboard even connected to it, so the on-screen seek bar would be very helpful.

We are working on that.

can you give us a update

[vlc_fan-01]

they should make it semi-transparent (my own opinion). They should add addional options in Preferences for where we want it to show when in fullscreen and we move our mouse - whether appear at the bottam as standard , appear at the top or even at appear at either right or left side vlc plays video fullscreen

example - although colour/look wud depend on vlc theme

Simplified controls designed to take advantage of Flash 9's full screen ability. Currently implemented on the brightcove.com player.

gladd to here , you guys workin on it,

and sorry if I am comming across as too aestitical with my vlc feature requests

Issues about transparency on fullscreen is our video output that don't allow that.

Hence the problem between VLC's video window and Vista's Areo. No way around it, or would it require a major re-write in VLC's code or something?
