White Line at the bottom of full screen video

[Thomas123]

Hello there!

First of all: SMPlayer is the best, most luxurious player I have ever used! Many thanks to its developers!

Now there seems to be a small bug: About every 3 out of 10 times that I open it in full screen mode ... there appears a white line at the bottom of full screen. It is only 1 pixel thick ... but still kind of annoying. If I restart again it is usually gone.

Is this a known issue?
My search brought no results.

I think I never saw this problem in my computer. Does it make a difference if you select another video output in preferences -> general -> video?

Thank you for your reply!

Now I tried all the different video outputs. ... No change!

But in all these trials, I realized 2 things:

1. It is not a white line, but has the colour of the player-border. In my case grey.

2. If I go fullscreen (double click on movie) from a maximized player-window ... the bug occurs almost always. ... Whereas if I go fullscreen from a normal (not maximized) window ... not very often.

Does it make any difference if you enable or disable the option "repaint the background of the video window" in preferences -> advanced?

No, this doesn't make a difference.

But I need to apologize to you!
I found out, that it is a system-wide bug. It also affects my image-viewer Gwenview in fullscreen-mode and also VLC in fullscreen-mode.

Sorry for bothering you without checking this first!

(Normally I would have, but the bug must have come in with my last system-upgrade. And this is also when I started using SMPlayer. And since I had never seen such a pixel-line before, I figured it must be SMPlayer ... sorry!)

I have a second bug to report and I really hope, I am not wasting your time once more. ... I open a new thread.
