MPlayer refuses to go fullscreen when I start it with -noborder option. Without this option it works fine.

I tried following command but it does not work.

mplayer -vo vpdau -zoom -fs -noborder video.mp4

I also tried with gl, x11, xv. None of these work with -noborder and all of these work without it.

  • Commandline works fine here. You seem to have a VA-API enabled MPlayer, could you add the results of mplayer -vo help to your question?
