In short, the video should open in original resolution/size but stay in the current size when repeating (looping). Eg. if I drag and resize the window during playback it should stay that way when repeating the video.
Now, is there a way to achieve this result with given setting options in vlc? I have not found any combination of settings that gives the desired results. I am currently using version 1.0.5.

If not possible with current settings, could you implement such a feature? As The DJ state in one of the posts, you can see the quote below, it might not be implemented. I would say that;
1. It is a highly sought after feature. There are probably more threads but these should be enough to prove my point.
2. Why does it have to complicate things? Is there any problems in adding a checkbox Do not resize video when repeating option and make a snippet of code that compares the hash of current file with next file if both the Do not resize video when repeating and the Repeat current item are checked.
The DJ:
It wouldn't be logical. VLC does not know what kind of file you are playing. it does not know that you have selected to repeat the file. It sees "he new file". So it opens it at the correct and original size and aspect ratio. As far as i can see this is a good thing and not something we want to complicate by adding a special check on the playlist from the input core for this rare case. As long as it stays fullscreen when that is selected.
