mplayer stretching the playable image

[Ant2ne]

How do I fit an image to the screen in mplayer. I stretch the window, but the playable image stays the same size.

Re: mplayer stretching the playable image

In my kubuntu/mplayer:

Mplayer > Preferences > Video > Available drivers: x11 X11(xImage/Shm) -> black box around - no fullscreen

But if Available drivers: gl X11(OpenGL) or gl2 X11(OpenGL) - multiple texture version -> fullscreen working ok. Also xv seem to work.

I get this

Mplayer > Preferences > Video > Available drivers: x11 X11(xImage/Shm) ->

I see no

->black box around - no fullscreen

I also seem to have these drivers

X11(OpenGL) or gl2 X11(OpenGL) - multiple texture version ->

but still no

->black box around - no fullscreen

Where should I be seeing this?

Re: mplayer stretching the playable image

If i use x11 X11(xImage/Shm) drivers and stretch window -> Image stays original size (with black edge), no scaling.

So if i have 320x200 clip and i press f (fullscreen) -> there is tiny picture in the middle of screen (1680x1050) with huge black edges.


If i use gl/lg2 drivers and stretch window -> Image scale is same as window scale.

So if i have 320x200 clip and i press f (fullscreen) -> there is screen size picture.

As mplayer says:

Warning
Please remember that you need to restart playback for some options to take effect!

Thanks, that wasn't exactly the situation, but close. xv/X11 was the one I needed =). So now I gotta figure out things like, how do I keep it from changing back to the default size and stuff like that. 8)
