the -geometry option works for only certain video output devices. If you look at the man page and read the description of the geometry option you will see this. I am using the special nvidea vdpau output device and using the geometry option with that works just fine. -----Original Message----- >From: James Board <jpboard2 at yahoo.com> >Sent: Oct 3, 2009 7:37 PM >To: mplayer-users at mplayerhq.hu >Subject: X geometry options > >I typically start mplayer on the command line from a Linux machine like >such: >??? mplaye -fs FILENAME >This requires me to then do two mouse clicks to locate the player window on the screen.? That doesn't make sense since I'm in fullscreen mode.? X applications typically handle this with a -geometry command-line option, but that doesn't seem to be implemented by mplayer.? My question: how can I tell mplayer to simply put the player window anywhere on the screen without having me to mouseclick? > >Jim > > > >__________________________________________________ >Do You Yahoo!? >Tired of spam?
