Yes, it works now. Thanks for the quick fix.

BTW, it seems there's also a similar problem with x11. Actually it seems to be 
an old problem, it's even present in mplayer 1.0rc1.

When using -wid and x11 as vo, the video displayed by mplayer doesn't always 
fill the -wid window, it draws the video keeping the aspect ratio of the 
video, leaving unpainting areas. This doesn't happen with the rests of vo's 
(xv, gl, directx...).

That issue makes that the aspect ratio options in smplayer don't work well 
when using x11.

The problem can be seen easily in smplayer by opening a video, and then 
selecting Video -> Aspect ratio -> Disabled. Now when the main window is 
resized the video should fill all the window, but with x11 the video is 
displayed on the center (keeping aspect) of the -wid window leaving the 
borders unpainted (I'm using the option -nokeepaspect but it doesn't make any 
difference).

And this is how the other drivers display it:
