Bugzilla Bug 127936

I've noticed that after upgrading to media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0.20060217 (and
possibly X.org 7.0) mplayer doesn't work with xinerama anymore.
This gives me the problem that the mplayer window gets way too wide because it
fails to detect that I run a dual monitor setup. This happends with -vo gl, gl2
and xv, because x11 uses software rendering it doesn't have the same problem.

The other ebuild (media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0_pre7-r3) does work correctly.

mess)

If others have this problem, I forgot to tell that you can work around it by
putting media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0.20060217 in /etc/portage/package.mask.

This will mask this mplayer-bin build so the portage won't install this one
anymore but up- or downgrade to another version.

I've noticed there's a new version of mplayer-bin (mplayer-bin-1.0.20060302)
but it still has the same problem.

As noted by Rick, mplayer-bin-1.0.20060302 does not have xinerama support here
either.. please recompile with xinerama flag..  This is almost become unusuable
in it's current state.

This is still a problem in mplayer-bin-1.0.20060302, and it's completely
unusable for a lot of people.

Fixed in 1.0.20060408.
