I have two monitors, 1920x1200 and 1600x1200. I have an Nvidia
graphics card and use Twinview to make one large X-screen from
the two monitors.
I normally play wide-screen movies on the wide-screen monitor and
4:3 movies (oldies) on the 1600x1200 (= 4:3) monitor. This still
works fine in 1.0.4 even when I go to wide-screen mode.
I've recently noticed that if I use mplayer to play 4:3 movies on
the wide-screen monitor then fullscreen mode is messed up. There
are two problems:
1) the border of the mplayer window does not go away, and
2) even worse the window is expanded to fill the width of
the wide-screen so the bottom of the movie is off-screen.
I reverted back to version e16-1.0.2 and the problem went away.
I can full-screen 4:3 movies on the wide-screen monitor and the
border disappears and the movies spans the monitor vertically so
there are vertical back bars to the left and right of the move.
One strange thing is that I don't have this problem with either
SMplayer or with Xine. It is just the plain vanilla mplayer that
has this problem and it only happens when I try to play a 4:3
movie on the wide-screen monitor in full-screen mode.
I'm using MPlayer SVN-r29796-4.4.3.
There is another full-screen xinerama oddity involving flash
videos. If I make a flash video full-screen then it always
chooses the left monitor to go full-screen on, regardless of
which screen the html page (that contains the flash video) is on.
Every app other than flash goes to full-screen properly. If the
small windows is on the left monitor then it goes to full-screen
on the left monitor and if it starts out on the right monitor
then it goes to full-screen on that monitor.
I've swapped everything around: monitors and CRT vs. DFP. The
only constant was that flash would always full-screen on the left
monitor.
This problem (with full-screen flash) is not a regression, it has
always been this way since v. 1.0.1 and earlier.
I hope it doesn't seem like I'm complaining too much. E16 is an
absolutely delightful WM. It might even be the most delightful
program I've ever encountered. I'm so glad it is still being
maintained. I'm mostly just trying to help out by reporting
bugs as an expression of deep gratitude to the creator(s) and
maintainer(s) of e16. Thank you.
Peace, James
