I cannot reproduce the problem. VLC asks for 80% opacity by default not for full transparency. And it works fine for me (Qt4.6.3 and KDE 4.4.7).

Make sure you have not configured opacity to 0 in the VLC settings.

Bug appears only on oxygen theme of kde controls. When using bespin, everything is ok.

If there is one, i don't know anything about it. I also have no background in other apps when using oxygen, so i totally switched to bespin.

Bug 686117 (which I filed) has been marked as a duplicate of this bug, but the description here does not mention the chief problem that I have experienced. Specifically, when foreground elements in the fullscreen controller change, they are not "undrawn" from the background. The image https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/686117/+attachment/1757631/+files/vlc.png shows this. As a secondary matter, my desktop environment is not KDE, but rather LXDE.

Is that really the same bug as this?
