I get something along these lines (output with some parts deleted) it
says something like what you mentioned but dont understand how to
correct it if this is wrong:

vo: X11 running at 1024x768 with depth 24 and 32 bpp (":0.0" => local display)

Output:

mplayer -v -vo x11  -fstype fullscreen  -xineramascreen -2  4_head.wmv
