Issue 333 in xmonad: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen
Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 333 by polux2001: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. install ubuntu 9.10 2. cabal install xmonad 3. mplayer somevideo 4. press F What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Nothing happens. This doesn't occur with other WM (metacity). Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". I'm using a customized xmonad.hs but the problem occurs with Config.hs found in he distribution. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #1 on issue 333 by daniel.wagner: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this gets marked as a "won't fix". The fact that xmonad ignores windows' size requests is one of the reasons I use it. If you want mplayer to go fullscreen, use one of the many solutions available in xmonad-core and xmonad-contrib: the doFullFloat manage hook, the Full layout, the JumpToLayout extension, and so on. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #2 on issue 333 by polux2001: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 Ok. So this (not) working was a bug of xmonad 0.8.x ? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #3 on issue 333 by wirtwolff: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 I am unable to reproduce this with default xmonad.hs (Config.hs settings not overriden) using mplayer that installs with ubuntu-9.10. (Neither with xmonad-0.9 or current darcs). It also worked fine for me in the past on xmonad-0.8.* The default xmonad manageHook floats class "MPlayer" which allows f or 'mplayer -fs 'to work correctly so far as I can tell. polux2001 please try again with xmonad defaults. If you still find mplayer gives problems, please use xprop to check the WM_CLASS(STRING) and post that output if className differs from the typical default: `"this resource one varies other is className", "MPlayer"' For those who don't want to float mplayer: On the mailing list is a modified isFullscreen hook which allows toggling mplayer to and from fullscreen and tiled status. With more testing and comment perhaps that hook can get added to xmonad-contrib to give even more mplayer options. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #4 on issue 333 by moha...@bana.org.uk: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 I'm running ubuntu 9.04 with xmonad from the repo and facing a similar issue with another player; Movie Player (GNOME). I think the way fullscreen works isn't correct. So far I've only been able to get rid of the red line around the window, but I still see the panel at the top. It's very annoying watching anything with the panel at the top. I need the panel so removing it isn't an option. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #6 on issue 333 by jan.h.xie: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 Hi I have the same problem. My mplayer works properly in other WM, and it worked properly in xmonad before. The mplayer is floated but it doens't get corrent screen size (I have two screens, 1960x1080 and 1280x800). Here's the xprop output: 09:45:~/.xmonad$ xprop WM_STATE(WM_STATE): window state: Normal icon window: 0x0 WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS): program specified location: 560, 240 program specified size: 800 by 600 program specified minimum size: 4 by 4 program specified minimum aspect ratio: 800/600 program specified maximum aspect ratio: 800/600 program specified base size: 0 by 0 window gravity: Static WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "MPlayer" WM_NAME(STRING) = "MPlayer" _NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 1835 WM_CLASS(STRING) = "xv", "MPlayer" WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW Attached my xmonad.hs.

Comment #7 on issue 333 by jan.h.xie: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 I'm running archlinux, xmonad is installed by compiling code in darcs (xmonad core Num Patches: 1078, xmonad contrib Num Patches: 2048). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #8 on issue 333 by polux2001: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 The WM_CLASS(STRING) value is : "xv", "MPlayer" as expected. My config extends the default one, which floats class MPlayer, and indeed, mplayer windows are floating, but their size doesn't change when pressing F. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #9 on issue 333 by wirtwolff: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 Found a reference that might be relavent here. http://tigerdyr.wheel.dk/ctwm-archive/2146.html Suggests using -fstype=none in command line. If this works for you guys, you could put it in ~/.mplayer/config as fstype=none The alexeyFullscreen manageHook query I referred to is at http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=313 Please see if either of these enable fullscreening mplayer. FWIW the mplayer version that works for me without extra configuration is 2:1.0~rc3+svn20090426-1ubuntu10 (karmic) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Updates: Status: Invalid Labels: Type-Enhancement Comment #12 on issue 333 by wirtwolff: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 Moved Movie Player report (totem player) to http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=339 Closing this one as invalid since xmonad defaults are sane and mplayer issues were solved with mplayer configuration changes. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
