Dear sameer....it all works well, but <br> $mplayer -vo fbdev video.avi<br>......works, but not fullscreen and when -vf scale=1280:1024 was given it became fullscreen, but still the resolution problem existed.fbxine is perfect in all sense, but how do we get subtitles in fbxine ? fbi (imageviewer of console) also shows resolution problems. .fbgs (pdfviewer for console) also works,with the same problem.I also tried vga=795 and that also didn't solve the issue.<br>
I' ve added vga=788 to /boot/grub/menu.lst (to the line corresponding to kernel) and boots to view videos in console.<br>Expecting support from the community....And THANKS for the supports already given....sanal<br>

Hey Sameer,<br>
<br>
It works. Thank you for suggesting a solution using mplayer, which is<br>
my favourite media player. But it is working when I log in as a root.<br>
When I log in as a sudo user only audio is coming out.<br>
<br>
Is there any tool for viewing images in console?<br>
