Interface issues when using fullscreen
Version 2.0.0.69 Build date June 8 2023, but these issues have been around for at least a year, I can't now recall for how long.
- When "Launch files in fullscreen" is on, skipping forward/back to next/previous file always forces fullscreen. Before, this option only affected launching a file.
- After using skip back or forward in fullscreen at least once, exiting fullscreen will forcefully un-maximize the window. Before, if you maximized the window it would always stay that way, even after reopening the player.
There's a chance these aren't bugs but features. Still, thought I'd mention this inconvenient behaviour.
I can confirm both behaviors. Number 1 seems debatable, but number 2 seems wrong.
Number 2 is pre-existing.

Should it go full screen when hitting next, if it is not currently fullscreen?
I think it was requested in the past to go fullscreen for every file. But it is fine with me to keep current window state when going to next/previous.
Edit: when player is already running and a new file is opened through Explorer, then it should go fullscreen again. That was what was requested in the past. I am not sure if it is easy to distinguish properly between use cases. Maybe just keep current behavior of lauching fullscreen for every file.

It still goes FS if you launch from explorer with this patch.
Regarding #2
above, I can still reproduce it in 2.0.0.162
Patch only addresses issue 1. Issue 2 is older and unrelated.
