Overview

neoVideo adds a native Windows video player to VisualNEO Win. It uses Media Foundation for primary playback with a DirectShow compatibility fallback. The video surface includes antialiased modern overlay controls for play/pause, seeking, time, volume, and fullscreen.

Controls remain visible while showControls is enabled. Fullscreen uses the monitor containing the control, and Esc restores the embedded player.

When showControls is enabled, the video uses the upper area and a dedicated control panel occupies the lower 76 pixels. The two areas do not overlap. Disabling showControls removes the panel and returns the complete control height to the video. Both surfaces follow object visibility and page navigation automatically.
