Installed latest version of this picom everything works fine but while playing video I can see the WIBAR/status bar at the top. For youtube as well as vlc, see image below. Also where I can tweak this setting, is the config file still in ~/.config/picom/picom.conf. problem

You can find a sample of the picom.conf called 'picom.sample.conf' that comes with this fork. This does not seem to be an issue of this fork of picom in particular, but I can suggest a few things.

Try checking the unredirect settings in the picom conf and playing around with those to see differences. If that's fine, it might be related to your awesome config. Check in rc.lua for your wibar's declarative properties for ontop = true set. Make sure you don't have something similar:

client.connect_signal("property::fullscreen", function(c) if c.class == "VLC" then c.ontop = true end end)
