[Mplayer-users] ICCCM compliance

[Rajesh Fowkar]

Will anything be done on this count in mplayer ?

With xv I really get excellent video true full screen but with sdl
some part from right and left side of screen remains black for some
videos.

Hope the problem of xv driver for mplayer is fixed soon so that I can
use it with icewm.

Warm Regards

Rajesh
