[MPlayer-users] aspect ratio options ignored

[Frederik Eaton]

Hi,

I'm trying to watch a DVD and the display aspect ratio is wrong. I've
tried to change it with -x, -y, -xy, -aspect, -vf aspect, etc., and
none of these have any effect. Here is the command:

mplayer dvd://10 /dev/dvd -alang ja -slang en -zoom -aspect 16:9 >& mplayer.out

Below is the resulting output file.

Also, if I can make a request, I think it would be much easier to use
mplayer if it exited with an error upon encountering an option which
has no effect, rather than just ignoring it - I don't know how hard
that would be to do, though...

Thanks in advance,

Frederik
