I've been playing with XGL/Compiz (in SUSE10.1) the last couple of days. It's working nicely... mostly. The one noticeable exception is with MPlayer. MPlayer works OK... sorta... as in it will play the videos I feed it, and I can do all the silly stuff like play a video around the ends of one desktop and onto the next. Where it is going "wrong" is the aspect ratio of the video. When I initially launch the video, it's stretched (for lack of a better term). And I mean really stretched. It's displaying at a ration of about 1 high to 40 wide. If I attempt to go full screen, it expands and zooms the video in on the top left corner of the video. If I maximize the window, it maximizes normally and the video is sized accordingly. The closest thing I can think of in comparison is with the older versions of Acrobat reader. If you didn't have the Desktop Dimensions set right in the xorg.conf file, it would display distorted PDFs (despite everything else working correctly). So... has anyone else bumped into this odd aspect ratio thing in XGL? Anyone know of any way to "preset" the aspect ratio? C. .
