I doesn't matter. It's something that I wanted to do since sometime ago. No, 
in fact the compiling part is the easiest. It's just that previously there 
are a lot of packages to install. In linux it's easier thanks to apt and 
similar tools.

No, the window that I use has no borders at all. I'll explain a little better. 
There are two layers (none of them have borders). The first layer is just a 
black background. The second layer, which is the window I pass to mplayer 
through -wid, is where the video appears. This layer is resized and moved 
accordingly over the background layer to keep the aspect ratio. The 
background layer acts as black border.

I forgot to mention that I'm not using vo_fullscreen. In fullscreen mode I 
just detach the two layers mentioned before from the main window and resize 
to fill the whole screen.
