Where's the Menu button?!

Postby Rebel » 12 Mar 2012 08:58

Since "upgrading" to 2.0, the Menu button has vanished.

Quite often while playing a video, I want to go to the menu, but now that seems impossible - there's a Playlist button where the Menu button should be!
And there's not even a Menu button in the Video menu.
Am I missing something?

We never included a menu button in VLC. What do you need? Do you want to go back to the DVD menu?

oh, we really never had that one. The menu is listed here though (so you can go back): Playback menu -> Title -> Menu

You're right, I guess there never was, I was thinking of Quicktime.
Don't know why I never missed it before - it should be right there with the rest of the controls, because it's an important button (IMO).

Well, I've gone back to 1.1.12 anyway, because I dislike the new player.

Thanks!
