When playing video jumps to windows - x5nder - 2008-09-19

I am running XBMC Atlantis Beta 1 fullscreen, but whenever I play a video it opens Windows, so I see the title bar (XBMC) of the window and the movie. Really strange, previous XBMC-versions didn't have this bug.

I have tried both "720p 16:9" and "1280x720 fullscreen", my native desktop resolution is 1280x720 too.

Any suggestions? Huh

I mean 'windowed', ofcourse Blush

Hmm. Even with fullscreen enabled in advancedsettings.xml I still get the windows movie. In the log I read this:

Did you perform a full uninstall (including profile dir)?

I had the same problem and doing a complete uninstall solved this issue.

Try changing resolution from "Auto" to "Full Screen" in Settings > Appearance > Screen.

Hmm. Setting the resolution to PAL 16:9 in the screen settings and then 'Best available' instead of PAL 16:9 in the video player settings (why are there two seperate settings anyway) seem to have fixed this... weird!!!
