Qt Menu shortcuts are not working when mouse over embedded video rectangle

Reported by: Aphax Owned by: courmisch
Priority: normal Milestone: 1.1 bugs
Component: Video output core Version: master
Severity: normal Keywords:

Description

Certain shortcuts listed in the menu (such as CTRL+H to toggle the minimal view) don't seem to work when the mouse is hovering over the video rectangle (which I have embedded in the Qt GUI) even though the VLC window is focused/active. I have to move the mouse pointer to either a Qt widget (which is of course not possible if I have the minimal view active), the window border, or outside the window border for the key shortcut to work. This doesn't happen with all key shortcuts, for example space (play/pause), f (fullscreen) work fine no matter where my mouse pointer is located.

This is with the git snapshot (nightly) from 20080625 on Gentoo with Qt 4.3.4.

The Qt shortcuts are first catched by the VideoOutput, and Qt never hear of them, so they don't work.

No idea on how to fix this yet.

Actually no. The X11 output does handle key presses (and set key-pressed), but it never receives them from the Qt4 embedded window.

  • summary changed from Menu shortcuts in Qt GUI not working when mouse over embedded video rectangle to Qt Menu shortcuts are not working when mouse over embedded video rectangle

Actually no.

All the CORE hotkeys works over the video rectangle and over the whole interface.

All the Qt menu hotkeys starting with Ctrl don't work over the video rectangle and are working on the rest of the interface.

Confirmed, very annoying for a very long time (even with old wxwidgets interface). Having media player without working shortcuts in quite meaningless. Maybe higher priority? Thanks.
