right-click Menu in player window problem

Postby kosh_ac » 28 Feb 2012 04:33

Hello everyone!

Installed version 2.0 and noticed a little, but annoying problem!

The menu which comes up when doing a right-click within the player window did not show the items I expected from the previous version.
Especially the video-menu I use very frequently!

The first thing I did was a clean install with removing preferences and cache and to my surprise there were the items I missed, but then
the downfall again as I switched to the standard custom skin I previously used!

As this worked fine with the previous version of VLC (1.1.11) I have to assume that it is a problem of the 2.0.0 with the different custom skins
as it happens with every custom skin I tried!

For a better illustration of what I exactly mean I attached two pictures which show what I mean:

Native Interface:

Any Custom Skin:

Thank in advance for your help!

Regards from Aachen, Germany,
Guido

The problem appears when you open VLC 2 double-clicking on a media file

Thanks for the hint!

It is exactly as described there, when I double-click a Media-File the Menu is different, as soon as I skip to the start or just restart the video
the Menu is as it should be! Very weird behavior!

Regards,
Guido
