OS X Show in windowed-full screen rather than true-full screen - how to enable it?
#1
Hi

I was trying out various settings when I came to "Show in windowed-full screen rather than true-full screen" (it¨s on picture on the front page of your new webpage, which is nice btw). It's enabled by default, but of course I disabled it, the screen went black. I had to reboot the computer to "see" anything again, now every time I start xbmc it's black.

How can I enable that setting again without doing it in the gui (since it's all black)?

OSX ML 10.8.4


Thanks.

Guess that's why they put in the "Advanced" settings ;-)
Don't know if it will help, but you might try hitting backslash '\', which alternates between full screen and windowed. It might get you back in control.

Yea, I'm on vacation, too much spare time and I was feeling lucky Smile

Of course I should have read up on what the implications the setting might have, but I didn't and now I'm in this mess. Thanks for the tip, didn't help through.

Any other suggestions? (besides reinstalling the entire program, don't want my library gone Smile

WOHO, I fixed it myself Smile

If anyone is so stupid like me to change that setting when on OSX, read the wiki, all GUI settings i stored in:

/Users/<your_user_name>/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/

Change: <fakefullscreen>false</fakefullscreen> into <fakefullscreen>true</fakefullscreen> and then your done.

Good to know. You might want to give the name of the file that's in too.
