always on top & file open

[dert]

first off, I LOVE the way you devel crew got bs player less buggy now, its really a nice vid player, and small enough to put on a disc with some vids

ok, heres how I found this bug, try to reproduce this:

my system is 1024x768 reolution,, Win XP

(note, I have found a way to get around this, by hitting CTRL + F4 , but alot of us arent that knowledgeable, hence this bug report)




== press the 'L' key to open a video , open file, center the vid window on the desktop , then toggle on the Always on top (CTRL + A)

When you opened that video, note the size of the 'common dialog' file open window. Make the current playing video window bigger than that and centered in the screen

ok, watch your video. wait till its done, or if youre eager to see, go ahead and open the common dialog (press 'L' key)

now... go to the taskbar ,click on BSPLAYER bar or maybe you got this report open in your browser, hit alt+tab to switch back , then go back to BSplay

ehh?

ok, hit CTRL + F4 before panic.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
also, I was trying to reproduce this annoyance a couple times, I got this message here below after I hit ctrl + f4 (this is while the open dialog is underneath the vid window, so it could be something else entirely, but I will include it here:

I am also using Window XP and 1024 x 768 resolution. Difference is I couldn't play the video, only the sound.

Most probably you should update the codec needed for playback. While you're at it, better update BSPlayer itself also (build 817 is the most recent version).
In this connection please read items (1) to (4) of my Help2Help-post.
