Good, you will be happy to know that we're redoing the UI for 4.0, to fix UX issues. And the issue you mentioned is fixed in last version and better fixed in 4.0.
> but there seems to be no interest.
That is totally not true. We listen a lot to user feedback, but we are understaffed compared to the project size. It is getting better, and the biggest issues (like the one you mentioned) are all getting fixed.
- valtism 7y agoWhen you say you are going to fix UX issues, do you mean you're going to address concerns, or do you mean you're really doing an overhaul. I personally use IINA, because of its closeness to QuickTime UI, but I would imagine cutting / hiding so much usability would be difficult for VLC. Can you tell me a little about your approach to this problem? I am super interested to hear what your thoughts on it.

- dmitryminkovsky 7y agoThanks a lot for VLC.
- bstar77 7y agoI only made the comment about the lack of interest because of how long these issues have existed, and I certainly don't think any of us are entitled to a better UI if it's not a priority at the moment. You guys have my utmost respect for your efforts and I'm happy to hear some of the noted improvements are also high on my list of wants.
