Quicktime 7 full screen controls are draggable

Brian, others: I wrote a widget for remotely controlling VLC over a network via HTTP interface. It allows me to control vlc remotely from my powerbook. www.autopoetic.com/vlcremote no worries about bringing up any interface controls over the video.

I knew that since day one...

Brian: Why bother with the Dashboard VLC widget? Just hit cmd-` when you're in full screen VLC playback and bring up the proper VLC controller. That way the video you're watching won't darken as you bring the controller up, unlike Dashboard. And God forbid if you have other widgets open

I use VLC with the Vlc Widget(here). That way I pull up dashboard when I need to change around.

FWIW, the free utility Xinema allows full-screen viewing of QT files. Matthew Jeppsen www.FresHDV.com

the first video of quicktime 7 show the drag feature

Yes, it's full-screen, hence pro-only. Also, it is only available in QT7. I don't believe QT6 had on-screen controls in full-screen. And for some of us, this is old news. ;)

Yes, full screen is a Pro only thing; I had to reenter my key to do this experiment because it wouldn't give me the full screen - I installed a new HDD two weeks ago and reinstalled everything and the key was a loose end I forgot about. The player control palette is draggle in Panther.
