[Freevo-users] Mplayer resize issues
Hi guys I've just been getting started with setting my media server up with freevo via a rather nice projector (Mitsubishi HD1000 - VERY good) and I've noticed that when I play videos through either mplayer or xine via freevo, the picture goes all blocky. If I'm running my laptop, I use Media Player Classic and 1280x720 resolution (the same as the projector's native mode) the display is smooth when resized from the original (which for DVDs is something like 720x576, I forget exactly). I've had a look at mplayer's man page and I've seen a few options for changing the way it resizes but I'm a bit stuck - there're quite a lot and I don't know which video output mode it uses when playing through freevo. Has anyone else had a similar issue, or could point me in the right direction? Thanks, Justin - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
