If the mouse stops over a DVD thumbnail, a tool tip is displayed with DVD information.  I'd like the ability to disable this dialog as I don't want to see the thumbnail covered up by anything.

If DVDP is used as a movie selection program with the LoadDVD plug-in, the mouse pointer could be disabled on a touch-screen interface and movie information would only be intended to be displayed if the thumbnail is tapped on.

I think technical this isn't possible, because a touch screen also has a mouse pointer that is controlled by the finger. If you touch on a place on the screen, the mouse pointer is set to this location and a click event is performed.

Tapping/clicking also displays the tool tip so in effect, you have the disc information being displayed in the details along with the tool tip.

But this will disable the tooltips global on the whole system?!

Plus, I don't think DVDP tooltips are system-level tooltips.  DVDP's tooltips have a shaded background.

FYI, Changes are coming (possibly in version 3.2) that will give more flexibility and functionality to these tooltips.
