Video window keeps starting off-screen

Postby mastermiki » 29 Mar 2016 00:39

Opening a video file, the playback window keeps showing up with its top half off-screen, at the top of my screen. I eventually deleted all of the preferencesit and it came back to work properly = window is displayed near the top left corner of my screen. However, eventually it keeps creeping back up there and off my screen! This becomes very annoying. I keep dragging it down by grabbing the bottom of the playback window but it doesn't remember the window position and doesn't stick between re-launches of the app.

El Capitan 10.11.4 | VLC Version 2.2.2

What Mac and how many screens do you have?
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.
