System configuration.

I can also confirm this bug in Herd 4.

My screen is usually at 1024*768 at 85 Hz, but when I switch to fullscreen in Totem, my screen resizes to 1280*1024 at 60 Hz.

My monitor is a Philips 107 E5 and my video card is Nvidia GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x 64 MB.

I have something similar, I use twinscreen at work, at home just my laptop. I use a script to set the single monitor that does:
        xrandrmode=1
        dac=off
when I'm at home I watch things with totem. My screen settings jump to dual monitor and the aspect ratio is changed to extremly wide screen.
I use totem-xine

I have the same issue here. it overrides my resolution (1280x1024) and uses the highest available to X (1920x1440). Leaving fullscreen doesn't revert it back to my original setting. I am using:
Totem Movie Player 2.17.92 Movie Player using GStreamer 0.10.11 (CVS) and GNOME. It looks like this is in Herd 5 also.
Samsung SyncMaster 957MB

I can confirm this bug. I have a 1280x1024 LCD monitor, but I set everything to 1024x768 when using my TV-out. Then when I switch Totem to full screen the resolution is changed back to 1280x1024, resulting in not having full screen video on my TV.

Using up to date Feisty Herd 5.

Thank you for your bug. Could you try if that change makes it work correctly?

 totem (2.17.92-0ubuntu3) feisty; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/control.in:
     - don't Build-Depends on libxrandr-dev, the screen resizing is confusing
       (Ubuntu: #85820)

[johanjpk (johan-stevon)]

How do I get to this 2.17.92-0ubuntu3? I only have 2.17.92ubuntu1 here?

[johanjpk (johan-stevon)]

I have 2.17.92-0ubuntu3 but the problem is still there.

[johanjpk (johan-stevon)]

I don't know what status it needs but Needs Info is not the one. 2.17.92-0ubuntu3 didn't fix it.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the change from 0ubuntu3 was not correct, could you try again with 0ubuntu4?

[johanjpk (johan-stevon)]

0ubuntu4 didn't arrive yet...

[johanjpk (johan-stevon)]

Just got the new version and it works allright. Thanks.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Marking fixed then

[Geert Jan Alsem (gjalsem)]

Confirming it's fixed, thanks.

Has this bug been reintroduced?
Similar description happens on natty. The desktop runs as 1280x768 but on full screening totem it jumps to 1024x768.
