Here is the output for three separate invocations of mplayer. The
first is from the old mplayer-1.0pre8 version:

The next invocation is for the current version of mplayer called
without arguments as was the previous call:

I had to kill the program from a different machine.

Finally this is the current version where I directly
call the svga driver. Whereas SDL was able to fill the
screen using svgalib, this call does not.

I have tried adding options -fs and -zoom without either
changing the size of the picture.
