vlc-media-playerwindows xp
As you can in this above image there are two windows of vlc player, I just want to get rid of the other vlc direct3d output window.
VLC version is latest i.e. 2.0.1.
If I change the video output to some other also; this thing doesn't change. Only the title changes i.e. now it is direct3d output then it will change to openGL or as per the selected output video option.
This happens when I play *.mov files.
Have you tried disabling hardware video acceleration in VLC? This might fix the half-screen problem.
Yes I realize this isn't the question asked, but it seems to be an XY Problem.
The easiest way to get the URL of the video to paste into VLC that I found was in Firefox.
Go to the video using FF. Right click -> Page Info. Go to the Media tab and find the video URL. The type will be Video, and the URL should be av.vimeo.com/foobar. Right click -> Copy the URL. Paste into VLC and off you go

Change the output to Direct2d output
For any anyone having difficulty getting the option to stick: Press save not cancel after selecting the Direct2d setting.
