several issues with gecko-mediaplayer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open up a video on vidxden [1] (in Midori web browser). See attached 
screenshot of initial player display which appears as expected while loading 
the cache.

2. After the cache gets filled, the video starts playing. Then double click to 
enter fullscreen and double click again to escape fullscreen. You will notice 
that the player buttons disappear (or are no longer visible and usable). See 
second shot. 
3. Re-enter fullscreen and most of the times you will notice that the player 
fails to adjust the video image to fullscreen size. See 3rd shot. 
4. Although at random times and for unknown reasons the image does get adjusted 
to fullscreen size. See 4th shot. I'm not sure how to reproduce this, though. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.3 from Launchpad PPA [1] on Xubuntu Lucid 64bit, using Midori 0.3.6.

Please try with SVN of both gecko-mediaplayer and gnome-mplayer, many changes 
have been made in this area.

Effectively, SVN code addresses  issue nr 2 : now the interface doesn't seem to 
freeze in any test case. However, the fullscreen issue---nr 3---is still 
present.

Please post the output of your configure command, I'm guessing you are building 
without X11 support.

Attached is the output of configure for gekco-mp. But I was having the same 
issue with 1.0.3 installed from PPA.

Actually, I need the configure output of gnome-mplayer, as that is where the 
issue is.

Sure. See attached. 

checking for X11... yes

I tested your link on my machine and going to full screen works perfectly. I'm 
using gnome-shell on Fedora 15. I notice that you are using Midori, does it 
have these problems in Firefox?

I'm using Xfce on Xubuntu Lucid. But you're right, it works just fine in 
Firefox. 

Should we assume some specific issue within Midori? (If so, what should I 
report to the Midori devels?) Or is it something coming from gecko-mp?

Well if it works with Firefox, but not Midori, it would make me think it is a 
problem in Midori. Perhaps research it with them and see what they say.

Well, the strange thing is that most of the times it doesn't, but sometimes it 
works. Now I have a tab in Midori with a gecko-mp instance: yesterday the video 
didn't resize to fullscreen, while today---after a suspend and perhaps 
else?---the video resizes just fine to fullscreen. Both yesterday and today the 
cache was at 100%. Now I've suspended again, and afterwards the exact same 
gnome-mp instance no longer resizes to fullscreen. I'm not sure what this 
means. 

In any case, I will report this later to Midori, but since it's mostly a 
one-man show dealing with a lot of reports, I am sceptical that they're going 
to follow through.
