Upscaling with Mplayer?

Hi!

I'm using freevo as a media center and with that Mplayer as the main media player. Is it possible to have Mplayer upscale the SD-material I have on my computer? Say everything under 720P up to 720P and leave everything else alone?

thanks

man mplayer

I would use something like

mplayer -vf scale=:720 -sws "1-10" filename.avi

check what the options do in the man page.

Thanks for the reply!

But how do I get this to work through the mplayer config? Since I'm using freevo I'm not going to start movies through the terminal.

For example -sws 7 and -vf scale=:720 translate to

sws=7
vf=scale=:720
