when playing a video in fullscreen and overlay mode, using the contextual quit or stop menus stops the video but keeps the screen black on the foreground and VLC running

Hi,

My VLC is configured to be full screen in the preferences (tools / preferences / video / full screen) and using overlay (accelerated video output (overlay)). I can see the bug in both XPSP3 and W7SP1 plus all the latest patches on different PCs with different makers and hardware. Seen in VLC the last two years at least up to now 1.1.11.

I can reproduce it anytime with any kind of video (.AVI, .MPG...). I cannot reproduce it with an audio file as there is no "full screen mode without a top menu" for audio files.

Steps:

1. set the preferences XP/W7 (full screen ON + overlay ON) then quit
2. double click on the video to play
3. the video plays full screen. There is a context menu. Use either quit or stop.
4. the video stops playing, the screen is black. You are stuck.
5. start the task manager and kill the VLC process.

Notes: a) if you disable 'overlay' alone it works OK b) if you disable 'full screen' alone it works OK c) if you use the stop in the bottom bar, it leaves the full screen mode and then you can use the contextual 'quit' OK d) if you use the contextual 'leave full screen' then both the contextual stop and quit are OK e) if you use the contextual 'leave full screen' then both the stop and quit from the top level menus are OK

So it's obviously an issue when you have full screen and overlay. If I do not use overlay, more CPU seems used and the bottom bar flickers, appears or disappears...

My XPSP3 settings are attached.

Merci pour VLC.
