[MPlayer-users] Two minor quirks

[Warren Crossing]

Hi Jeremy,

Does this happen when you start mplayer and open a movie from the 
command line? Or only when opening a movie from the gmplayer file open 
dialog? For example,

mplayer -zoom -fs movie.mov
gmplayer movie.mov

What if you quickly flip out of and back into fullscreen mode?

For some reason guiIntfStruct.Playing is 0 even though the movie 
actually is playing (The gui doesn't know about it).

I checked by adding printf to /opt/MPlayer-1.0pre8/Gui/mplayer/play.c

This makes me think some initialization code is being missed somewhere.

Another symptom of this is the the theme bakground color is not blacked 
out, until you flip out of and back into fullscreen mode!
