Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.1-1
Severity: normal

vlc uses the virtual desktop resolution for full screen mode, while it
should use the viewport resolution.

In my case, I normally work in 1280x960, but my tvout only supports
resolutions up tp 800x600.  To play a movie, I switch resolution to
800x600 (using ctrl-alt-+).  Then I can use mplayer and xine nicely at
800x600 resolution in fullscreen.  VLC however, still thinks the
screen is 1280x960 and scales the image accordingly, causing it not to
fit on my tv.

This happens both with xv and xshm output.

The problem seems to be the use of DisplayWidth() and DisplayHeight()
instead of XF86VidModeGetViewPort() in xcommon.c.
