Description
MPlayer is probably one of the best media players on Linux... but it does not keep the original aspect ratio of videos!
Sure we can select "Aspect ratio -> Original", but as soon as we resize the window, the video is distorted!
I mean, why can't we at least have an option to always keep the original aspect ratio of the videos?!?
All other players I tried in ubuntu even do it by default:
-GNOME MPlayer
-Kaffeine
-KMPlayer
-KPlayer
-Totem
-SMPlayer
-VLC
...

I'm pretty sure that if GNOME MPlayer, KMPlayer and SMPlayer can do it, pure MPlayer and GMPlayer can, too. They are just different GUIs for the same backend.

Probably they can, if the developers include that as an option... at least there seems to be no visible option to enable that...

Well, mplayer itself has no gui at all: of course there's no option! You're talking about GMPlayer, though, I think, so yeah, I agree, if it indeed doesn't do it.

I was referring to a program called "MPlayer Movie Player", it has a GUI... maybe it is MPlayer with GMPlayer as a GUI... I'm not sure...
All I know is that this program has not that option...

sf_007: yeah, that sucks. But I think GMPlayer gui as a whole sucks... Use gnome-mplayer :)
