| Post subject: | mplayer zoom in MythVideo |
I use xine for DVD playback and if you press the Z key while watching a DVD, you acctualy zoom (scale) the image proportionately to fill a wide screen TV. Granted this crops the video on the edges a bit depending on the screen ratio of the movie, but my wife really likes the full screen. Is there a way to make mplayer do this for MythVideo. Since my ripped videos are all cropped, if is there a way to scale proportionately until the vertical is filling the screen? UPDATE: I have been working through the mplayer man pages and trying many different combinations of the -zoom and -xy -y -aspect functions trying to get something that works. I want the movie image to scale proportunatly until the height reaches the monitor height dimention of 480. According to the man pages: Code: -xy <value> (also see -zoom)
value<=8 Scale image by factor <value>. value>8 Set width to value and calculate height to keep correct aspect ratio. Well, I want to do the exact opposite. Set the height, and scale the width. Any ideas? |

any luck? i think mplayer has some pan-and-scan options in the man page but i've never tried them. might be worth a look. |

I have tried so many combinations of things in the man pages, my head is still spinning days later. I also posted a question on an mplayer board, and have not gotten a single reply. I just don't know. This one little thing would be awesome if I could just figure it out. |

this seems to work for me: Code: mplayer -fs -panscan 1.0 file.avi
i only see a difference in full screen mode. you can play with the 1.0 value. it must be between 0.0 and 1.0, it appears 1.0 is most expanded and 0.0 is none. the man page says it only works with certain output drivers, so if it doesn't work that could be the problem. I'm using xv and it seems fine. good luck! |

Your video-out may not support panscan, for instance fbdev. If so, use this: Code: -vf scale=800:-3 .. to scale to 800 width and set the height accordingly, keeping aspect ratio. or: Code: -vf scale=-3:600
.. to scale to 600 height and set the width accordingly, keeping aspect ratio. Where 800/600 might as well be 640/480 or 1024/768, whatever suits your monitor/tv-set. |
