Hi,
I am running Riva 0.56 to play MPG videos.
Video in windowed mode displays OK with good sound through AHI.
   
When I press enter, the video enters full screen.
   
Press enter again and the video still plays in full screen but the same video plays in a smaller window overlayed, like picture in picture. The video does not revert back to windowed mode.
   
Changing tooltype options or command line options does not seem to have any effect.
 
When the video finishes playing in windowed mode, exits back to workbench normally, however when video finishes playing in full screen mode, exits back to workbench and the screen is a garbled mess.
   
I was using Riva 0.54 but when I entered full screen on my current monitor, the monitor displays "monitor resolution not supported".
 
Riva is a great little player but does not have any player options.
Other similar players have start, stop, play, rewind etc.
A playlist option would be useful.
   
Thanks...

Yes this is known bug in the current version.
This is on the todo list to fix for the next release.
