VLC 3.0.14 on MacOS v11 - Now playing does not show up in Menu Bar (top left)

Postby sulepy11111 » 25 May 2021 14:29

When play something using VLC on my Mac, I don't see Now playing in Menu Bar (top left). But I can see Now Playing when I play song by iTunes. I can play/pause VLC using media key on touchbar though. I have given VLC permission to 'control your computer' under Settings > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility.
Please help me with the settings please... Thanks :)

We don't support that yet on the Touch Bar. I'll fix that for a future update.

What about menu bar on top left?

Thanks for the support..

That's technically the same to implement. We will do both!
