little mplayer, BIG MPLAYER


Hi All,

I've installed mplayer and everything is running fine. The only problem I have is that I can't seem to get a full screen. When I maximize the mplayer window, the actual viewing area is still the original very small size. Any help is appreciated.

Many Thanks,

ab

try using the -zoom option:

mplayer -zoom -x 800 -y 600 /your_movie.mpg


you can also specify "Full Screen"

mplayer -fs /your_movie.mpg
