Hi, Mplayer fullscreen doesn work well with metacity. I start mplayer, and get a movie windows. When I press "f", I get full screen video, but pressing "f" again, gives me my desktop. Mplayer still runs, but the video isn't found anywere on the screen. Using -fsmode-dontuse 26, 28 or 30 workd Here is the output log of mplayer -v Note I had to set -vfm 1 in the parameters. I have -vfm 5 in my config file, but I only got a black screen with that. ************************************************************************ MPlayer CVS-020728-15:04-3.1 (C) 2000-2002 Arpad Gereoffy (see DOCS!)
