Any way to setup mouse left-click to pause and resume playback?

Most media players play/pause when you click on the image. It's quite convenient, and I wouldn't mind having that option in Media Center.

Absolutely!  Perhaps it will be a future feature?  Try saying that 5 times fast...

After trying Theater View, I have come to the conclusion that it's even more convoluted than Standard View.  For me, at least.  So, I'll stick with Standard for the time being.

Please add this feature to JRiver so that the left mouse click starts and pauses the playback.
PotPlayer is an example of a media player that works this way.

@JimH.. in response to your message above "why not click on the pause button"..
Clicking on the play and pause button with the mouse is not so easy when you are 3 metres away from the screen, it would be much easier to be able to click anywhere on the video to resume or pause playback.

Remapping the left mouse button would end in tears.

But you can certainly download X-Mouse Button Control and do some remapping, and send the play/pause command with whatever button you like.

It is very simple to achieve the desired functionality using XMBC. (I've used it for example to make the mouse work appropriately with Irfanview, the author of which is notoriously obstinate about letting users customize mouse behavior.)

I suggest you pick a different button.

Have fun...

I'll just use a wireless keyboard and the spacebar instead. I don't want to remap the left click on the mouse, I just want to pause and resume playback when clicking on the video in full screen (without having to click on the pause button)
