|
|
this is not a question im just posting because i
fixed an annoying problem for me.
fact is pixels on tfts are QUADRARIC so a 1280x1024
display is NOT 4:3 format (e.g. 1.33 aspect)
i noticed it because fullscreen mplayer gave me a picture
with slight "egg heads" (not much)
so i took my ruler and began to get the real height and width of
my videos and the screen.
and a 1280x1024 tft display has an aspect of 1.25 and NOT 1.33
(which is the default)
knowing that it was a quick fix just add -monitoraspect 1.25 or
put it in your /etc/mplayer.conf
hope that i helped someone |

man mplayer
Code: | -monitoraspect <ratio>
Set aspect ratio of your monitor or TV screen. See
also -aspect for movie aspect.
EXAMPLE:
-monitoraspect 4:3 or 1.3333
-monitoraspect 16:9 or 1.7777
|
mplayer.conf
Code: | # monitoraspect=4:3 # standard monitor size, with square pixels
# monitoraspect=16:9 # use this for widescreen monitor! non-square pixels
|
so I think putting this in the conf file will work
