[mythtv-users] Xine not filling up screen

[MythTV User]

I tried checking the zoom factor 100% or 200% from the xine GUI but somehow
doesn't accept it. However, while playing the movie, pressing the key 'z'
repeatedly, it zooms in and fills up the screen. This is OK for me for the
meantime as compared to using mplayer with no OSD support.

There was no zoom settings specified. I don't specify any other
switch/option other than what we normally see on the mythtv guides. My
command is :

  xine -pfhq --no-splash dvd://

BTW, mplayer does stretch it to 16:9...Any clues?

my monitor.

Are you running Xine with the zoom level set to something like 50%?
Might account for the small (but correct) video yet normal menus.
