GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 593556
Controls not shown in non-fullscreen mode
Last modified: 2009-09-03 15:47:45 UTC
When I open a video file in the browser and the totem plugin handles it, the controls are not shown (any more). When the video is watched in fullscreen, the controls are available. So the user has no possibility to pause or see the progress in non-fullscreen mode. Can someone confirm this? Is it a regression?
This will only happen if you're viewing a mime-type handled by the VLC (Cone) plugin. VLC defaults to having its controls hidden, so we were mimicking that. That obviously doesn't work well when we're handling mime-types that other plugins would be handling, such as mp3, or mpeg. commit 149a572a2b11517a7cde9a73f44af0bf947428f3 Author: Bastien Nocera <hadess@hadess.net> Date: Thu Sep 3 14:11:16 2009 +0100 Bug 593556 - Controls not shown in non-fullscreen mode Show the controls when VLC mode wasn't explicitely asked.

Just for the record, I was playing an OGV. (Sorry for the duplicate by the way.)
