Hey,
i have a bug in vlc 0.8.5-3 (i also had this in previous versions)
When i have set it to "Always on top" from inside the program whenever i want to return from fullscreen the video freezes. The audio doesn't and i can kill vlc from another console.
I'm using Gnome 2.14.1 and Kernel 2.6.16.19-1 but i had this problem with previous releases
This task depends upon

I have a similar problem when zooming: when I go to 200% all controls disappear, controlling functions freeze, but video and sound continue.
Using KDE 3.5.2.

jeah. same here. but i only got it if i am using the wxWidgets interface. I can't zoom at all.. Resizing the windows dosn't work either.

well, I can confirm that this happens, but honestly I consider this to be an upstream issue. Please try to find some informations on the vlc mailinglist or their forums.
