I have the exact same configuration and problem. I haven't found a real
solution, but i found that if i use xine thusly:
export DISPLAY=:0.1
xine -f foo.avi
The fullscreen video output is correctly "on top of" the KDE desktop and
panel. MPlayer for some reason doesn't correctly do fullscreen on a
second X display.
Please let me know if you find out how to work this with MPlayer.
Thanks,
mike
