 Posted: Mon Sep 05, 2005 5:06 am Post subject: MPlayer - full screen? |
 |
|
When I try and play a movie in mplayer it works, but when I press f to go full screen it does not work. It makes the window full screen, but the movie is still as small as it was to start with in the middle of the screen, with the rest of the screen being black.
How do I make it resize the movie properly? It does the same thing with all formats (avi, mpeg, etc). I'm using the AMD64 version and am using the 64MB onboard VIA graphics chipset. |

you need to use the xv video output (vs. x11), try: | Code: | | mplayer -vo xv VIDEO_PATH |
If it works, add vo = xv to /etc/mplayer.conf
EDIT: Since mplayer usually defaults to xv when it is available (IIRC), you may need to remerge mplayer w/ USE="xv" |

| Code: | | mplayer -vo xv VIDEO_PATH |
does not work and neither do the other two opengl ones. Only the x11 option works. The other three produce errors.
| Code: | | mplayer file.avi -fs -zoom |
works though. Should I add these options to my /etc/mplayer.conf file? |

With what USE flags your mplayer is installed? Perhaps some drivers are missing?
Does | Code: | | mplayer -vo xv file.avi |
work?

No. This gives me an error. |
