Video obscuring drop down menu
 

Hi,

On any video I play, the picture is on top of the drop down menus for the player so they can't be seen- they drop down and work and can see the parts that are to the sides of the video picture. This happens on every video player I have tried -Movie player, GNOME MPlayer, VLC.

Running Mint 9 on an Elonex webbook. Completely new to Linux so may be missing something obvious.

Thanks.

try more players, posting picture will make this post more easy to understand

Hi,

The image that shows the problem had to be taken with a camera as using the screen capture looked as though the video picture wasn't even there (image also attached). This may help give insight into the problem.
