[vlc] firefox plugin focus problems

[Zoilo Gomez]

I am using VLC mozilla plugin (vlc-0.8.6c) with firefox 2.0.0.4.

After loading my page with <enbed> vlc-plugin window, I notice the 
following:

1) if the mouse is not over the embedded window, and I press 'f', then 
nothing happens (correct, I think)
2) if the mouse hovers over the embedded window, and I press 'f', then I 
get a full screen (OK)
3) press 'f' again, back to non-full-screen (still OK)
4) now I click on another object (eg. one of menu options) to move the 
away from the VLC plugin object, then press 'f' again -> still full 
screen video! This (I think) is not OK, because the focus is no longer 
on the embedded video plugin. It seems as if the plugin has not released 
the focus, or is still handling all the events.

As a result, my menu is not working anymore either in this situation: 
before going full-screen I can use TAB-keys to go through the menu 
options, but after step 4) this is no longer possible.

Actually, I would like the plugin not to bother with any event, but 
control it 100% (and only) via the vlc control object using javascript. 
I do not want the vlc object to respond to 'f' (for example), but only 
toggle full-screen mode if my 'full-screen' menu button is being clicked.

Any suggestions anybody?

Tia,

Z.
