Does anyone know if VLC's UI can be made to obey Trinity's font size settings? I have font size set to 14 in qtconfig (~/.config/Trolltech.conf), and QT's own settings window has fonts same size as Trinity's size 14 fonts. VLC's fonts are only about half as big as Trinity's:
I finally got fonts right in VLC in Jessie's 14.0.3 via IRC help suggesting to install and run qtconfig-qt4. NAICT, all running qtconfig-qt4 did was put a font setting line into ~/.config/Trolltech.conf. That's already been done in openSUSE 42.1 via /usr/bin/qtconfig, which comes from the libqt4-x11 rpm, yet VLC fonts remain tiny in openSUSE. :-(
The subject machine/installation is not my own, as I'm doing a nearly blind friend a favor. I checked on one of my own openSUSE 42.1/TDE 14.0.3 installations, and can't get fonts in VLC to obey any font settings there either.
Random question, possibly not helpful--is it possible that VLC is using the qt5 GUI that's available in recent versions?
Unless recent means for some years, then no. Or anyhow, that cannot be the complete explanation. As I said, I have never used vlc because of this problem. I don't remember how long I have been avoiding it for, but I would say at least since KDE 3.5.10
