A fix for annoying mplayer full-screen mode switch
Authored by: sfgecko on Jul 21, '04 10:54:20PM

unfortunately, a couple bugs i noticed:
- unable to resize the video window if width is set in preferences
- if using an s-video out, full-screen mode will not show on the s-video output.

A fix for annoying mplayer full-screen mode switch

Do you use Command-f or simply f to switch to fullscreen? Note that the focus must be on the movie window before you can press f.

The fast-fullscreen version of mplayerosx uses the quartz output driver instead of the sdl which kept switching screen resolutions. Quartz of course, is the native way to display video on OSX.

The fact that the video is not displayed on s-video out could indeed be a bug in mplayer's quartz output driver. Perhaps I should add a switch in the preferences panel to choose between sdl and quartz.

anyway, why don't you join the sourceforge's mplayerosx project? ;-)))
