hud

When I watch a movie in Movie Player, the HUD pops up every 8 minutes or so. I am not touching the keyboard or the mouse at all. Alt makes the bar go away, and then 7-8 minutes later, it pops up again. This happens when I'm watching fullscreen or not fullscreen.

Can you help me fix this? I've been using VLC instead (because it does not have this problem), but I don't like it as much as Movie Player.

Is there a shell-independent HUD-like menu search tool for Xfce/GNOME/Cinnamon?

as seen on Ask Ubuntu - Search for 'Ask Ubuntu'
The Ubuntu Heads-Up Display (HUD) - you love it or you hate it. Personally I rather like a classic desktop, so I use Xfce or GNOME-fork Cinnamon, and I'd like to keep those menu's where they are. But the HUD is pretty awesome when your menus are complex and you forgot where an option sits. This makes… >>> More
