GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 724988
show onscreen controls on mouse movement of at least 10 pixels
Last modified: 2018-05-24 10:48:46 UTC
When we play a movie with videos, a little (1 pixel) movement of mouse will show the controls on the playing movie. This is not good, with a little vibration on the desk, the mouse could get a cursor movement of 1 or 2 pixels. I'd request to have at least 5-10 pixel mouse cursor movement as a trigger to show the controls; to avoid frequent and unintentional showing of onscreen controls. The reason for this request is that the subtitles get covered with controls with a slight mouse movement, and the onscreen controls take 5 seconds to disappear (or when we click); which makes us do clicking with every slight mouse movement. Thanks.
I think the best way is the movie controls should pop up as user desire. following the design of common video players control in touchscreen device, this can be done by set it to show up when user click/touch on the screen and hide it when user click/touch it again on the screen when the control still visible. the auto pop up and hide only occur when initialy start the video to let user know it use pop up control. thanks for your attention.
