rkmpv Accelerated Media Player issues - zaius - 11-22-2019

This is a minor problem, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

I'm running the Bionic-Mate build off SD.  The rkmpv Accelerated Media Player seems to have the best video quality compared to the other two installed players.  (I have not tried installing VLC yet.)  However, it automatically opens in full screen, there doesn't seem to be any way to exit full screen, moving the mouse to the top or bottom of the screen doesn't bring up a bar with controls or playing information.  Keyboard commands do not work well.  Sometimes pausing with the space bar works, other times it gets stuck.

Sorry to drag this thread from the dead.
But have you come up with a solution since then?
I've searched the forum and the wiki, but I haven't been able to find one.

Sorry, I haven't found a solution, or had the time to look into it.

I understand perfectly Smile
I found a workaround, avoiding having many windows open allows me to go back to the rkmpv step by step.

If I understand how the command line behind rkmpv works, it executes mpv on a layer outside of what the window manager handles, resulting in a loss of focus?
