VLC opens two windows for me. Solved

Question

Hello, so here's my problem: Recently when I open my VLC, it shows me two windows: one with all the options (pause, fullscreen, volume...) and a second one with the video and sound, without the buttons. I don’t understand how this happened. The second window is called: VLC (software YUV SDL Output). How can I get back to a SINGLE window with everything in one? Thanks ;)

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 6.0.2

Hi, open VLC, go to "Tools", then "Preferences", and then click on "Reset Preferences".

Hi, for those who are still looking for how to solve the problem, you need to go to Tools, Preferences, Video. Then, at the bottom of the box under "Display", there's "Output". You select Windows GDI output, there you go.
