Request - main video window can't move outside main screen
 

Hi, for about last 3 version of Bsplayer, I'm really annoyed with this bug:
Video vindow can't be moved up outside the main screen. When, I move it, it returns back to main screen. For left, right and bottom yes, but up no. WTF? It is very annoying especially for HD videos. :(

Can you fix it, please?

Anyway thx for great player! :-D

Have you tried "Cut top and bottom..." option in BS.Player Video preferences?

The bug you mentioned has been already added to the bugs list, but never fixed, you can move the video window out the up monitor limit, but then the picture will be compressed vertically (and last 10 pixels will result out of the screen). I hope it will be fixed in a near future :roll: :wink:

Yes, I try this feature... "Crop top and bottom..."

Maybe I mean other thing, than you understand.

In older versions (guess last version without this bug is 2.10 build 939) it works normally... you can move video window partialy out off monitor screen in any side (left, right, up, down), but in last guess 3 versions not. You can move it only to left, right, bottom, but no to UP! If You try to move video window up out off the monitor, and release mouse, then video window returns fully back to monitor screen! AND THIS IS VERY ANNOYING!

For example, I have HD video with high resolution and sometimes need to move it partially out off screen (for example I want need look for some thing under the video, etc.)...

I rather call this a feature, if you move the window up, you can see what's underneath and after releasing it, it comes back on the screen.

No no, I understood right, but I didn't tried with latest release, and actually BS.Player behaviour v2.21 is different than previous releases one. And I prefere this one, since in previous versions if you moved the video out of the screen top margin the image got compressed vertically and the resulting total height was = remaining_portion_of_image_visible_on_screen + 25 pixel (as I reported in the BUGS list few months ago), so you couldn't move it neither in previous releases, it only got compressed vertically (and it was a bad result)
Now I think the devs implemented a really good compromise by forbidding the MOVE_OUT_OF_TOP_MARGIN "command", since now the AR is kept and no problems raise up with movie manipulation :wink:

Nice feature, really anoying.

For some, yes. Maybe one day will became a feature that can be turned on/off

Indeed a matter of opinion. I personally couldn't care less.
An option allowing video window to be placed partially off visible screen at the top could solve jnz's annoyment.
Have no idea how many other users would find that a usefull addition though.
:wink:

This bug is fixed, as you noticed in your following posts.

@jnz: We will consider adding an option which would allow this function.

Hi! Im too almost crazy with this "feature" ;)
Checkbox with On/Off function is my Christmas wish. :D

PS: Merry Christmas BSTeam!
