[0.9.4] Integrated video interface

The same situation here.
Ubuntu 8.10. beta, 64-bit + VLC 0.9.4
Note: Compiz visual effects enabled.

Also on 32-bit here.

And in addition "Show a controller in fullscreen" does not work.

I can confirm that, it's a regression from 0.9.2 and 0.9.3 (where it worked) and the 0.8.XX series (except for the controller in full screen, which is a not so great 9.XX feature).

21:53:35 < xtophe> siretart: ^^^
21:54:30 < xtophe> siretart: and it's to avoid #2136 that deactivated the embedded vout
21:54:52 < siretart> xtophe: aaah, so 0.9.4 disabled embedded vout completely, right?
21:55:13 < xtophe> siretart: yes
21:55:30 < siretart> http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=commitdiff;h=9c26b8e2a04468aa4b4a158f072d760a991932db;hp=6124f9823a490a0291e2604cd579b2e0e6c2c42f

so someone would need to apply that commit to the 0.9.4 branch

@Loic: You can disable the fullscreen controler in the preferences if you don't like it

Apply the commit to the 0.9.4 branch to fix it.

Yes, I experience this as well.

This bug was fixed in the package vlc - 0.9.4-1ubuntu3

---------------
vlc (0.9.4-1ubuntu3) intrepid; urgency=low

  * link vlc to unicode enabled curses library. Thanks to Rafaël Carré for
    reporting.(LP: #282644)
  * enable emedded video (LP: #282582)

Well done. Thank you very much, Reinhard.

I'm running 0.9.4-1ubuntu3 but the full screen controls still do not appear, even though they're enabled. (As this was part of the original bug report, I wasn't sure if this bug should be marked fixed).

The bug number given in the trac ticket is different. It talks of a different thing. I'm on jaunty, specifically using 0.9.8.a and the issue is still not resolved .

Both

a. The screen is not integrated as the rest of the interface as well as
b. The Controller is not shown in full screen.

Both the options have been chosen in vlc media player in Tools > Preferences > Interface

using Native.

I removed .vlc and tried again but no effect. The issue is still there.

The bug number given of the vlc trac comes from this thread on the vlc forum.

http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=51124

There doesn't seem to be a time-frame or any movement to fixing this bug.

Trying to avoid spamming subscribed users, I opened a new bug for jaunty (bug #314038).

This seems to be an issue again in current Jaunty. At least with Kubuntu/KDE4.

unggnu, there were new bug #314038 opened for that one.

Switching back to "fix-released" since affected was intrepid, and the issue has been fixed in it.

Same thing happens as in the very first entry now with ubuntu 9.04(jaunty) also. VLC version 0.9.9a

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Binary package hint: vlc

Up-to-date intrepid
Installed: 0.9.4-1ubuntu1

Affected 32 and 64bit systems
With or without Compiz enabled

When opening video, vlc player starts the video in external window
rather than integrated interface like it used to.
Also when in fullscreen, controls don't appear, though selected in preferences.
(show a controller in fullscreen)

Tried to change the settings, with no avail.

Tried to remove .vlc/ with no effect, funny thing is that vlc didn't create new settings in home
LANG=C ls -la .vlc/
ls: cannot access .vlc/: No such file or directory
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I can confirm baytuni words, but ls command in vlc folder show me :

Jaunty up-to-date, catalyst 9.4 from AMD ATI website.

Also I tried VLC 1.0 for Intrepid -but without chance under Jaunty (due different libs maybe)

The same thing happens as in the very first entry now with ubuntu 9.04(jaunty) 64-bit.

Same bug with Ubuntu 9.04 final release!

Seeing this with vlc 0.9.9a and ubuntu 9.04 x64

the forum says that it's fixed in version 1.0 and that "There is no way we can backport the fix to 0.9 as it is way too invasive, and depends on 1.0 APIs"

I can confirm this behaviour.

Ubuntu 9.04 64Bit
VLC media player 0.9.9a Grishenko
[00000001] main libvlc debug: VLC media player - version 0.9.9a Grishenko - (c) 1996-2009 the VideoLAN team
No compiz

hope this will be fixed soon
