When using VLC Media Player, the cursor no longer disappears once
a video is playing.

Is r.p.d. the best NG to find an answer to this Win10 question?

Sure, why not? Photogs are heavy users of cutting-edge computers
and software. It's like cameras. You'd NEVER go to Dpreview or
other professional photo sites to get the low-down on a new camera
as they are the last places where problems are mentioned owing to
their fealty to manufacturers and advertisers. It's almost always
the regular users who find out things first.

It's not on topic since it's not photography related.
alt.comp.os.windows-10 seems to be a fairly active group. 40 posts
the last 24...

I suspect that a number of photographers who use Windows also use VLC
as it is a long-used and respected media player on that platform. So,
RichA's question can be seen as verifying that the problem he
experienced is experienced by others, and if so it could have been a
VLC problem that doesn't involve Win10. I don't know of a VLC ng.
Although I would have responded to his question in the Win10 ng, I
don't see it as any more off-topic here than any other app or
platform-related post, of which there have been many.


The charter says, IIRC that the r.p.d is for discussions related to
digital photography and the processing thereof. VLC is a media player
and not related to photography like and raster editor would be, like
the GIMP or Pixelstyle. Both free to download and use, BTW...

Surely you realize that apps other than raster editors are used by
digital photographers?

Other topics should be marked OT so that they can filtered out by less
interested parties...

How do you explain your many responses to the discussion about rear view
cameras in cars that lack any indication of being OT? That is not the
only "OT" discussion that you participated in without making such
protests btw, so what is this REALLY about?


Why do you care? That subject should be marked OT too but I respond as I
see fit and not to please idiots like you!
