  1. # Watch a movie, clip or youtube video right via your terminal without X/graphics!
  2. # Run Mplayer via framebuffer with fullscreen zoom and resolution 1280 (horizontal):
  3. sudo mplayer -vo fbdev2 -fs -zoom -xy 1280 -really-quiet film.avi
  4. # If you are in fullscreen terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) you can also try the following:
  5. sudo mplayer -xy 1280 -fs film.avi
  6. # Note: you can omit "quiet" to get the position output, "fs" to turn fullscreen off
  7. # Note: you can adjust resolution with "-xy", for fullHD, try "-xy 1920"
  8. # Note: sudo rights needed on ubuntu, maybe not needed somewhere else
  9. # Note: tested on Ubuntu 14.04, Arch w/kernel 3.14.6
