It would have helped if you gave the options you were using, but here goes anyway: mplayer -vf expand=640:480 <path-to-video> I've tested it with a file, but not with any streaming video. If the source video prescaled and you want to scale it to 640 pixels, then use: mplayer -vf scale=640:-2,expand=640:480 <path-to-video> Cheers, Rob
