I have my monitor (actually it's my TV, I'm running XFree86 on a tv-out) set to 720x480 resolution, and I have noticed that when I play a DVD with xine, the playback window is larger than 720x480. Mind you, this is not overscan. Xine actually opens a window larger than the display. If I set the video window to full screen, the image is smaller than normal! The same thing happens when I use the --geometry flag to set the video window to 720x480. Why is this? I thought native DVD resolution was 720x480. Is there any way for me to fix this? |

On NTSC 4:3 you are right, films are normaly 16:9 widescreen and have to be scaled up to 848x480. The video is also scaled up, when the size and therefore aspect ratio in the x configuration isn't correct. > Mind you, this is not overscan. Xine actually opens a window larger > than the display.

What's about full screen mode (-f)? -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de |
