SUMMARY (Please, move this report to the correct category. I had no idea where to report it, but I think it's important because is one of those issues that most users can notice in the first 15 minutes of using Plasma) When double clicking on the video or selecting Video -> Fullscreen, VLC changes to "fullscreen mode" (e.g. the control panel to play, pause, etc. becomes visible at the bottom of the screen) but the video remains within the frame of the window instead of actually using the whole screen. I don't have this issue with Plasma 5.27.10 also running on Wayland. Perhaps this is an issue with how Plasma 6 handles XWayland apps? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a video with VLC 2. Double click on the video OBSERVED RESULT Fullscreen is not working EXPECTED RESULT It should work as in Plasma 5.x SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.93.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.249.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.7.4-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz Memory: 15.3 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Xe Graphics Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 20XYCTO1WW System Version: ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6

Created attachment 165890 [details] VLC in fullscreen mode
I'm unable to reproduce on Arch Linux running Plasma 6 RC2 from kde-unstable repository.
I'm also running the RC 2 from [kde-unstable]. Are you running with Wayland? What about your GPU?
Yes, Wayland session. I use intel iGPU from i5 4670k cpu.
Alright, if I set scale to 100% it works correctly. So this issue is related to the scaling. Can you confirm you are using 100% scale in your display configuration? Can you also try to change it to 125% for example, and replicate the issue?
Yes, I use display scale 100%. Tested 125% right now, and the fullscreen mode works as expected on my system.
Then perhaps is a "weird" combo of scaling plus not so common resolution (1920x1200). I hope someone else can replicate this. I just tested on a new user and I can replicate there too.
Can reproduce on Fedora rawhide with 125% scaling
As another data point, I cannot reproduce the issue with current git master, Qt 6.6.0, and 225% scale, an Intel 10th gen HD620 iGPU, and VLC 3.0.20.
I cannot reproduce with scaling at 150% on an external 4k monitor, but at 125% I can reproduce.

This is still an issue after updating to the Plasma 6.0.0 release. Was the fix included in the final tarball?
Unfortunately not, tarballs went to distros a week ahead of the public release.
I can confirm this bug on KDE Neon testing edition When using the following scaling percentages, VLC fails to open fullscreen or its working: 50% fail 155% ok 145% ok 140% fail 135% ok 130% ok 125% fail 120% fail 115% ok 110% ok 105% ok 100% ok 95% ok 90% fail Operating System: KDE neon Testing Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-21-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics Memory: 13,5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 21A4 System Version: ThinkBook 15 G3 ACL VLC version: 3.0.16 When Plasma 6.0.1 hits, I will check if it's working
I got the update to KDE 6.0.2 this morning so I tested this bug; the issue with VLC not working fullscreen persists. Steps to reproduce: 1. start a movie clip using VLC 2. view the clip on fullscreen mode. 3. stop the movie 4. change the scaling factor 5. start step 1 I tested the following scaling factors when playing a video on VLC full screen. 130% ok 125% fail 120% fail 115% ok 110% ok 105% fail 100% ok 95% ok 90% ok 85% ok System: Operating System: KDE neon Testing Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-21-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics Memory: 13,5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 21A4 System Version: ThinkBook 15 G3 ACL

KInfocenter shows version 6.0.2 (not sure now if that should be the correct version, but I'm on Neon Testing Edition :-) To be sure I rebooted and tried 125% scaling again, but fails to play fullscreen on my system.

> KInfocenter shows version 6.0.2 (not sure now if that should be the correct > version, but I'm on Neon Testing Edition :-) I guess it's because Neon Testing uses the plasma/6.0 branch instead of the version tarballs, [yesterday](https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/commit/e516aed7790df74f5d8930efc348a78bc14ad11e) the version was already changed to 6.0.2, which will be released next week. Can you check that [the patch](https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/commit/ebce0e3c3371fbc5a59955c91873edca1b6e4e79) was applied in Neon. I still didn't update to 6.0.1, but I will confirm once it is available in Arch. However, KWin 6.0.0 in Arch includes the previous patch that fixed the issue for me.

Possibly fixed more betterer with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/5371. Can folks see if adding a window rule for "Obey geometry restrictions" that forces "No" for VLC fixes the issue? If so, the above merge request will fix it, with the fix being released in Plasma 6.0.2.

Created attachment 166579 [details] Three seconds of white video in 4:3 aspect ratio
Created attachment 166580 [details] Three seconds of white video in 16:9 aspect ratio I've added two attachments/videos for easy testing. I had created those to test this issue on my machine (Arch, KDE Plasma 6.0.1, mpv) and could confirm that the 4:3 video does not go into fullscreen on my 16:9 display, while the 16:9 video does.
I also forgot to mention (apologies), I'm on X11, not Wayland. Not sure if that matters for this one.
confirmed behaviour on lastest Neon stable, wayland, 125%

Can you test whether the issue is reproducible after you create an "obey geometry constaints" window rule as described in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=477086#c18 ?

Issue is not reproducible with this window rule in place, mpv switches into fullscreen as expected with it.
Thanks, then this will also be fixed in 6.0.2
