VLC occupies "Enter"

Postby tmiller » 30 Oct 2014 10:07

Hi, guys!

I wanted to write about my issues for a long time ago, but I never found enough time to do it and here I am. My issues is about playing videos with VLC. First, I have an additional monitor, connected to my laptop, so I can watch movies and browse the web simultaneously. However, once I play video via VLC media player and then I type any URL in my browser then press Enter and booom my VLC switches to FullScreen. I figured out that once VLC runs, I cannot use the Enter button any more. Please help this issue really pisses me off.

P.S. I use VLC version 2.1.5 downloaded from http://softchamp.com/download-vlc-media-player installed on Windows 7 Ultimate. If this matters at all.

The official VLC does not "occupy" Enter, unless of course you configured the hotkeys that way.

I tried to download VLC from the official site as well, but the result was exactly the same. I've never tried to configure hotkey, actually I don't know how to do that. This happens only with vlc and no other player that I have installed. Please advise.
