Not so long ago, MP began to play any video in a small preview window only. it's quite annoying gymnastics, to force me to stand up, come to PC, move the mouse and click preview window...
Could not find any option for that, esp. keeping in mind I didn't change anything except have added number of channels into TV server config.

Any idea how to fix?

Hi

Maybe you can upgrade to latest stable 1.2.1 version and see if problem still exist.
If so, please post full debug log files.

 

[argd]

well. I bet will be solved even by re-installing the same version with full re-config. this is not an option I would prefer... It worked before, just something went wrong.

Is the window built into MP (like in the lower left corner) or is it separate?

PS: you ought to post logs.

 

[argd]

yes, it is about lower-left corner window.

P.S. it is also only about local videos: "Online Videos" plugin works ok, plays full-screen by default.

latest logs bundle.

Fixed it: as I suspected above, it was caused by too long TV channels list/or too many channel groups.
Didn't mention that, but .ISO mounting was also affected.
