Lost video screen

Postby lilwiki » 04 Nov 2008 07:51

Video does not appear, I accidentally clicked the close button on the x11 video screen on 0.9.4 and I have been unable to get video ever since. Upgrading to 0.9.5 did not fix it, even messing around with the .vlc folder in my home directory. I also enabled/disable a whole bunch of video related options but nothing worked.

I feel like there is an option somewhere that I am missing as nobody on here is complaining about it.

Just to clear things up. I am not looking for video in the interface, but I need that separate video window that I closed and now cannot seem to get it back.

Great it worked, and this time the video does not disappear for ever when I close the xvideo window.
