Initial size for Videolan

Postby JayhawkSD » 19 Apr 2011 19:16

It used to be that Videolan would start and end minimized, and resize to the video size once it loaded. Now it starts approximately the size of my monitor, 1280 x 1080, and then resizes to the video size, returning to the large size when the video ends. That creates a very annoying effect. How can I get it to go back to starting and ending minimized (or in the small size, showing only the frame and control bar)?

Using Version 1.1.9 and Windows 7 Home Permium. Thanks if you can help.

If you move mouse to edge of player drag it back to being small is what i do then close and reopen vlc and it will always be small on start and on end of show, if that don't work you can delete preferences and cache and reset it back up to your liking,
