Bug#920931: vlc: sometimes the hotkeys dosent work
Package: vlc
Version: 3.0.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #920931
I have found out now, how to successfully reproduce the bug:
1. Start playing a video.
2. Switch to full-screen.
3. Jump (while still in full-screen) to the end of video.
4. After the video is finished, VLC returns to windowed mode.
Now drag & drop another video into VLC-window
Result:
VLC will now start playing the new video going automatically back into full-
screen mode, but it is not having the focus. And thus, the hotkeys do not work
in this situation.
In order to regain focus and to make the hotkeys working again one has to click
inside VLC window.
Conclusion:
I do not know, whether the original bug reporter is talking about a different
bug.
Should it be the same problem which I am talking about, then maybe its not
really a bug, but an unintuitive design choice.
Expected behaviour:
After the video is finished and VLC returns to windowed mode, it should
a.) Either not go automatically back into full-screen again, when I feed it
with some new videos.
Or
b.) Grab the focus again, when it is auto switching back to full-screen.
