The default xine config in 1.5.4 appears to be
duff. /usr/share/freevo/freevo_config.py contains these two settings:
XINE_COMMAND = '%s --hide-gui -pq -g -B --geometry %sx%s+0+0
--no-splash' % \
(CONF.xine, CONF.width, CONF.height)
XINE_ARGS_DEF = '--no-lirc --post=pp:quality=10;expand'
Combined, these settings cause Freevo to play any widescreen videos -
e.g. several 1024x576 .avi files I have - in 4:3, when you're running it
at 4:3 resolution (e.g. 800x600) and using Xine as the default video
player. The video is stretched to the 4:3 resolution and consequently
looks completely wrong. I think the culprit is the 'expand' option in
the XINE_ARGS_DEF. To fix this locally, I have added 'f' to the
XINE_COMMAND line between p and q; this tells it to start in
'fullscreen' mode. My XINE_COMMAND looks like this:
XINE_COMMAND = '%s --hide-gui -pfq -g -B --geometry %sx%s+0+0
--no-splash' % \
(CONF.xine, CONF.width, CONF.height)
I then set XINE_ARGS_DEF to be just:
XINE_ARGS_DEF= '--no-lirc'
Widescreen and normal video files now both play correctly for me (i.e.
the widescreen videos are letterboxed so they appear with the correct
aspect ratio).
