i don't think it's possible to do that in videofullscreen.xml. that window is very limited as to what you can do with it.

maybe you could work around it by creating a custom window.

thanks, I am a newbie when it comes to programming or skinning. Honestly I don't know where to begin. So if you can please provide me little bit more information like if there an example or some documentation to accomplish this task.

there's some info in the wiki about custom windows:

as for general skinning knowledge, start here:

Well I am to display banner at the bottom by adding a dialog box. But how do I change the size of the video window so my banner is not on top of the video. I want to make this kind of like picture in picture. Also anyone aware of any picture in picture or other digital signage plugins?

as said, you need to create a your own custom window, then you can use a videowindow control, see: Video_Control (wiki)
