Description

MinimalX skin for the VLC Media Player
[ Blue / Pink / Green]

-----------
[16.07.2013] - Release (v1.0)
...

[30.03.2017] - Update to 2.6.0
[25.04.2017] - Update to 2.6.2
[28.03.2018] - Update to 3.0.0:  fixes / optimization / button hints

-----------

Installation:
1. Extract the .vlt file to ...VideoLAN/VLC/skins ~ overwrite if needed
2. Start VLC => Preferences => Check to custom skin
3. Restart VLC (by closing and starting it again)
- if you already use a custom skin restart VLC as well - otherwise the fullscreen mode won't work

-----------

Returning to normal mode:
If you have issues to return from "Minimal Mode" to the normal mode => doubleclick the bottom bar

-----------

Bugs:
- If the video frame doesn't seems right, switch to fullscreen mode and back again

-----------

Hint 1:
If you can't see the control buttons because the video is bigger than the screen resultion - this should help:
- Preferences -> Interface Settings -> Look & Feel
- Switch to "Use native style"
- Uncheck "Resize interface to video size"
- Switch back to "Use custom skin"
- Save and close
- Restart VLC


Fixed version:
If you still can't see the control buttons / can't move the window - Download this version:

-----------

Any bug report, suggestion or wishes to improve the skin are welcome

This is my default skin- I love the simplistic interface. If only I found the slider easier to move around a video- it doesn't appear to me to be the entire height of it as an area where I can click, unless it's because I'm running at 4k with 150% zoom...?
