Details

Description toros 2011-04-11 01:36:44 CEST
installed media: Mageia 1 Beta 1 32 bit DVD
Desktop: Gnome
graphic card: Nvidia 6200 and drivers installed from Mageia repository.
monitor resolution: 1680x1050 (22" LCD)

Totem can not display full-screen with compiz.

Compiz settings are defaults.

First i open an "avi" file. Totem can not open file and give this message:
"pk-gstreamer-install need for this file an decoder extension... XVID MPEG-4 decoder. Do you want it search now?"

I installed "gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg" then Totem played "avi", "VOB" and "mp4" files.

If i enable compiz;

Window be full-screen. Display area is growing but not be full screen. Approximately 5 cm. black border every side.

If i disabled compiz (From Mageia Control Center and login again) Totem show full-screen. And no problem.

There is no problem like as this on Mandriva.

Hi,

I didn't manage to reproduce this bug on my system with totem. I always get a proper fullscreen by default. The only time I get a picture like yours is when I'm playing with zoom (ctrl+R ctrl+T).

Yes I do, too.

May be this not a bug.
Problem is living when compiz enable.
May be a configuration problem.
But, when do double click for full screen, it must be full screen.
I think this will be nice.

Thanks again...

Can you describe your hardware and drivers used ? 
Are you using multihead with different size of screen ?

Do you have the same problem with mplayer ? Especially, can you try different output with mplayer (such as xv, x11, gl2 etc.) and see if you can reproduce ?

AMD Athlon 64 3700
3 GB RAM
Nvidia 6200 TM (256+256 Mb ram)
22" lcd monitor

i installed my Mageia from mageia-dvd-1-x86_64.iso.
When my Mageia 1 was 32 bit it was same, too.
i installed nvidia drivers from Mageia repositories.

I am using only two media player. One is Totem, other one is gnome-mplayer.
There is no problem with gnome-media player.

is this enough? :)

Hi,

I suspect a bad interaction between nvidia drivers, compiz and totem.
My first guess would be that when you are using compiz, totem (specifically gstreamer) can't use the same video output than without. Maybe a limitation of the driver or the hardware, dunno.
So, it fallbacks to an output which doesn't scale correctly to fullscreen.

mplayer is generally smarter with this kind of problem so it would explain you don't have the problem with gnome-mplayer.

see for example : http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/faq.html#idp11116880

Unfortunaly, beside it's just a guess, I don't any idea to solve the problem. I suspect it would be the same with other gl-based compositor (kwin in gl mode for example).

Maybe you can try to change the video output of totem in gstreamer-properties (gnome-media package) or use Nouveau instead of nvidia proprietary drivers.

Sorry but the image *is* fullscreen: there is a black border around the scenery, so the *full* screen includes a border. If you want only the scenery you can remove the border (e.g. with GIMP).
