Please add option to disable autohide action of the control bar

The autohiding of the control bar is extremely annoying:

  • When the controlbar is on the screen, it obscures part of the video at the bottom, where subtitles/captions are often located, obscuring them from view for 5 seconds before the bar hides itself again
  • The animation of the bar appearing and disappearing from view is very annoying and distracting

I request that an option be added that keeps the control bar visible at all times, and that the control bar does not obscure any part of the video image
