Fullscreen in console requires a trick, AFAIK. In fact, the 'fs' option has no major function; 'zoom' does the work, though I may be wrong. Append the following options: -vo fbdev2 == Standard fbdev may not work. -zoom -xy WIDTH == Here WIDTH is your maximum horizontal screen resolution. -quiet == To suppress the info bar at bottom while maximized. -fs == To suppress background output while maximized. Here's what I use for my 1366x768 screen: alias climplayerfs='mplayer -quiet -softvol -fs -zoom -xy 1366 -vo fbdev2 -ao alsa -af volnorm' -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
