Mplayer you bitch how you like the fullscreen now.. hahaha

Yo i been having issues with mplayer like for ages now the only way i could get the damn thing to go fullscreen is by using the opengl codecs which when fullscreen began to play the videos choppy and out of sync.. well i did a bit of googing and found that if checked the mplayer.conf files i would have been able to just enable zooming :( yes i’m so embarrassed it should have been apparent from loooong time. ne way for future reference to fullscreen your mplayer all you gotta do if it doesn’t work by default is

sudo gedit (or vi or your fav text manip prog) /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf

look for zoom=yes and uncomment it

save and bam your good to go.

    Reason why i like mplayer so much is that it plays bin files natively!!! At the time i use to get ALOT of VCD/SVCD. I hated to have to burn or mount them files. With mplayer just point it to the raw file and ur good to go…. :D

    hmm it still isn’t like full full full screen.. cuase it used to do that before.. when i put it on gl i realize it said dr missing gl extension.. i’m gonna check my video device attributes in the xorg.conf file in a min.. hope i dont screw ne thing over though :(
