If you set the player to repeat/loop and also set full screen,
sometimes when the clip ends and restarts, full screen mode exits
and you see the desktop/windows/etc. It should ALWAYS stay in
full screen when looping, until the user intervenes. This doesn't
happen all the time, but very very often.

    I get a similar bug when fullscreen tries to move on to the next movie in
    the playlist. For example:

    mplayer mymovies.*
    f (for fullscreen)
    at the end of the movie, the old movie is stuck in a corner and the new one
    doesn't play correctly. It's like the full-screen mode never exits when the
    next movie starts playing.

    This is actually an error in the macosx -vo device and it isn't just
    fullscreen. That video device leaves ghost windows around whenever you
    move through the playlists.

    Use -vo quartz to fix it.
    Or add vo=quartz to ~/.mplayer/config
