Can't get video to display in the proper window
« on: October 29, 2007, 08:58:48 pm »

I watch a lot of videos in MC12 (DVD, TV, etc.) and I can't get the picture to display where I want it to.  I can only get the following displays to work:

- Bottom left corner of the screen in a tiny little box
- Detached display
- Full screen

To clarify, I don't want to use any of the above three methods to view videos.  What I want, are for my videos to be displayed in the big black area in the middle/right part of the screen.  I've had it set to display like that, but I can't figure out how to get it back that way.  Here's an example of where I want the view to be:

From the combobox where it says "Introduction", pick "Display".

Playing Now also looks a little like that.

Playing Now also looks a little like that.

To easily get to Playing Now:

  • Choose Playing Now from the Tree view on the left.
  • Hit Alt + 2
  • Add a Playing Now button to the top or bottom Toolbar of MC (Tools --> Options --> Tree & View --> Customize Toolbars) and use it.
  • Change Tools --> Options --> General --> Behavior --> Jump on Play to one of the Playing Now options and play something.

Add a Playing Now button to the top or bottom Toolbar of MC (Tools --> Options --> Tree & View --> Customize Toolbars)
You can also get to "Customize Toolbars" by right clicking on an empty area of the top or bottom.
