Borderless VLC video in 10.10?

Anyone getting this to work in Yosemite with VLC 2.1.5?

I have Preferences > Show video in main window and Window decorations (under the Video tab) both unchecked.

Worked fine and love it in Mavericks.

I was wondering this when I accidentally opened a video with QuickTime and noticed how nice it looked without the top border. Didn't even know it was a previous VLC feature, honestly. I'll keep an eye out.
 
Thanks guys. We will give some time and I'll post again when I see an update from VLC...
 
Just Googled it after your mentioning it.

Do you know if you can download YouTube videos with it? VLC can.

Yes, I got it working - by unchecking stuff at random (or almost all boxes in preferences and then in Advanced/Interface/macosx)

This is how my prefs look like

I simply unchecked everything there to see if it did anything and now I gots me the borderless window - all personal problems solved .. next: world hunger!

(and it's version 2.1.5 on Yosemite)

You are awesome. Thank you so much!
 
check the latest nightlies....they are changing the ui to match yosemite i think...so there is still hop 😉
 
To make it work you must uncheck native full screen control on main page and then on video tab disable window decoration and you will have it ....at least it works on newest nightlies
