Re: MPlayer zoom problem after xorg7

Try right click on the mplayer window, select preferences, go to video and try a different selection of video .....

It works with the X11 driver, but I can't change the size of the video, when changing to fullscreen mode, the video size is still the same.

what video driver do you use?

I'm using s3 savage

add

zoom="1"

to ~/.mplayer/config (create the file if it doesn't exist)

Re: MPlayer zoom problem after xorg7

try playign with this

#Some extra stuff I am currently not using....
#Fix A/V sync problems on files with bad MP3 VBR audio
#mc="1"
#autosync="10"
#delay="0.5"

of course uncomment them and play with them (in ~/.mplayer/config)

Re: MPlayer zoom problem after xorg7

I'm having the same problem.  My solution, which is not really a solution is to use VLC.

It doesn't install perfectly (it misses xvidcore) but it seems to handle the video better.

I would rather use MPlayer, but I'm using VLC until this thing gets fixed.
