Full screen to Window during live TV- How??

I am not seeing anyway to come to window mode from full screen mode in Beyond TV 4.5 while watching video(live or recorded) using mouse. Only way I can see is using keyboard shortcuts. Else use back button in the control interface (which stop the live TV or Video that is being played) and then select window option!!?

Why isn't available with all other controls while watching Video? Am I missing something or it is really that lame!!? Every TV Program/video Playback software I have used sofar has that option!!?

Any idea, hints to come to window mode without stopping video/live TV using mouse? Nice to be able to use a Wireless Mouse..!

Thanks

There doesn't seem to be with a mouse. Alt-Enter works from the keyboard.

Re: Full screen to Window during live TV- How??

FWIW, you can't do it in 3.74 either. Like chinna_n my reaction is WTF everytime I try to do it, but since I use link on my all purpose PC, which has a keyboard and FireFly on my BTV box, loud WTF's don't assult my family's sensibilities very often.

It takes four mouse clicks - first click the screen to bring up the toolbars, click on the clock looking icon near the top right, then when the guide appears click on the two box icon, then click on the backwards icon to get picture to return. alt enter is much quicker.

I know it can be done in multiple clicks, but china only has a mouse and was complaining that you could do it in 1 click from every other screen in the gui. Like I said above, it makes me say WTF every time!!!!!

You are upset for good reason, but that is not what he said. I use the exact same multi-click method all the time and I have 3D on so the guide is transparent.

That's what I was thinking! Even without 3D, the sound/video keep going (just can't see the video for the sec the guide is up)... The original poster implied he couldn't find ANY way to "come to window mode without stopping video/live TV using mouse", and the four-click method, albiet annoying, does accomplish his goal.

But I 100% agree that it should be one of the icons that automatically come up instead of having to go to the guide first.

The reason I put up with four clicks is that missing a little video is only slightly annoying compared to losing the time shift buffer when you have paused a live game. That is extremely irritating. Been there, done that.
