[MPlayer-users] mplayer full screen not really full screen (FreeBSD 8.2 amd64)

[Antonio Olivares]

Dear folks,

I am using amd64 freebsd 8.2 release with mplayer compiled from ports.  I cannot get mplayer to fill the entire screen,  only a small square remains in the center of the output.  I have compiled novueau in the /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau/ port and it is working, but not giving me full screen.

[olivares at quadcore ~]$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep 'nouveau'

I have seen that there are some tricks that one can setup in ~/.mplayer/config to get some settings in there by default.  Any suggestions/advice/comments are welcome and appreciated.
