What about adding this to the FAQ?

Here is a patch that adds the following question + answer

Q: The image does not have the right size in fullscreen mode!
A: Use the parameters -screenw and -screenh to tell MPlayer about your
   screen resolution. 

and also fixes a small typo:

Use : mplayer <options> <filename> < /dev/null &

should be

Use : mplayer <options> <filename> > /dev/null &

Regards

Diego Biurrun
