I got a radeon9700, xv works, uses no cpu usage while I watch full screen video's, but.. if I run it in 1600x1200 (which is my normal resolution) I see 1/4 of the video (even when I run mplayer in a window)... if I set the resolution down to 640x480 xv works normaly, and I see the "entire" video.


any suggestions on how I can get it to show properly in 1600x1200? Not that it is a huge problem to set the resolution down, but in window it also shows 1/4 of the screen, which is impractical when watching small stuff.

My friend's PC also has this problem with his Radeon 9700. He is using XFree 4.2.1 with the ATI binary drivers. We can't work out how to fix it but mplayer with "-vo gl" seems to be the next best thing.

There are drivers for Xfree 4.3 but not officially released yet. Hopefully new drivers will fix it.
