cannot disable fullscreen

Postby sstrobl » 10 Jul 2007 19:28

Hi

I'm new to vlc so please forgive any silly questions.
I installed vlc on a openSUSE 10.2 sucessfuly. I'm also able to open a rtsp MPEG4 stream in a tty.
My problem is that the command line options for scaling and positioning (I tried --width, --height, --zoom, --video-x/y) do not have any affect, i.e. the display is always zoomed to be fullscreen.
The transformation didn't work neither at first but then i figured I have to enable the video tranformation in .vlc/vlcrc by unhashing "vout-filter=transform" so I guess I'm only missing some other switch to make the scaling work. I didn't find any hint neither here nor via a google search though.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi
one more note. The "--zoom" command line option works for me under X but not in a text console!
Thanks Stefan.
