Request of a feature

Hello everyone. To me the minimal mode for playing a video is stunning - without frame and all. However, I manually add seek bar and control. What I think would be great is to have transparent control and seek bar plus a little 'X' icon appearing at the top right corner of the video when pointing the mouse over there to close quickly instead of right clicking and choosing exit. And one more thing it would be also very stylish to add an option when playing in minimal mode without frames to darken the background a little (like applying a black transparent layer) just like the websites have that option when opening an image. This is what I have imagined Let's see if my suggestions would be worth for considering. Thanks in advance.

When you play a video in full screen, then the seek bar will appear when you move your mouse to the bottom of the screen. It disappears again when moving mouse away. The developers might be willing to implement that for minimal mode too.

I don't think something like your second suggestion will ever be implemented. If you only want to see the video you should play full screen (press F11).

Thank you for your feedback. I'll transfer my suggestions to the website you mentioned. Let's what will happen.
