I have setup system so that I have two screens, :0.0 and :0.1, where the first
one is 1920x1200 and the second one is 1920x1080, both running max resolution.
I have problem with mplayer, each time I run it on fullscreen on :0.1 it uses
the 1920x1200, which means that the last 120 pixels is missing, I have tried
with -screenh but it don't work.
Is there a way to get mplayer to really use the right screen size or will it
always favor :0.0 size?

I don't know what graphical environment you are running, but in KDE 3.x
there used to be an option to save the window settings for an application.
Thus, if you are using KDE 3.5, put the /mplayer/ window on the second
screen and adjust its size to fit the dimensions of the screen. Then
right-click the titlebar and choose "Advanced", and then "Store window
settings". Next time you start up /mplayer/ it should start where you left
it, with the proper dimensions.
Hope this helps. ;-)

Yes, I still run with the last stable version of KDE, have one of those beta
unstable installed too, but don't use it due of the number of serious bugs.

It's not the windowed mplayer I have problem, but when I go to full screen
mode (press f), this is when it thinks the screen is 120 pixels larger than it
is, so I don't see the whole image.
Of course I could set my :0.0 to be 1920x1080, but then I loose 120pixel and
the proportions gets wrong (circles becomes ecliptic).
