Windows Media Player-- How do you hide controls in full screen mode?

[dxkj]

I have that stupid button blicked but the controls wont fade away.... Im asking this here instead of another forum because im sure im overlooking something stupid and hopefully this will take like 3 seconds to answer.

are you using windows 2000 or XP?

I dunno, mine goes away but the second I hit the mouse it comes back. Quite annoying. I try not to use it much, and when I do, I don't use full screen much, so, it's not that annoying. Free bump for you.

dont move the mouse and it should dissappear. you use MP9 right?

I usually have the opposite problem, getting it to reappear in full screen mode.
You should be able to minimize it and it will stay away.

move the mouse into the video box and let go of the mouse
it should autohide on its own
mine does.

If nothing works then use Media Player Classic. Plays even real media files too

alt enter
