Fullscreen controls not an overlay #226

Displaying the playback controls in fullscreen shrinks the video image. It would be better if they were an overlay.

You seem to be looking for a similar thing as #174 @godly-devotion what do you think about overlays in Fullscreen Mode? I personally don't really like overlays in general--they cover the actual image.

I am for overlayed controls in full screen mode (and optional overlay in normal windowed mode too). Most of the time you don't want the controls to show in full screen mode and you can still use keyboard shortcuts if you want.

The overlay would obviously only be visible when you're moving the mouse. There are several examples of unobtrusive designs in other movie players.
