How to hide gmplayer controls?

Mig21 · 06-01-2008, 12:24 PM

In xine I can press 'g' and that will show/hide the controls (the window with the play/stop/etc buttons).

How do I do this in gmplayer?

Thanks

I don't think it's possible. I can't find any way to do it either, except by expanding the video to full-screen. If you want to only see a video window, you can run and control the non-gui mplayer from a console.

David - the controls aren't hidden for me in full screen either. Are they for you? Or did you have to press something?

Actually, I see now that the control panel doesn't actually disappear. It's still there, it's just hidden behind the video window. But you also get a separate half-moon shaped controller at the bottom of the screen that auto-hides. So it ends up being pretty much the same thing. At least that's what I get with the default "blue" skin.

That's a shame, but thanks anyway. Maybe I'll try to find a better skin.
