      @hrmax23 O.K., never experienced this.
      But in my installation I rarely use MMM-MPlayer (it’s configured to have a look at my 3D-printer which seldomly is necessary), so I enable MPlayer module only if needed…

      Sorry, than I do not know…

        When I tested the module, I used a Pi 3b connected to a 4K monitor and it was working okay.
        After reading about the MPlayer window, that appears in the center, I decided to test again.
        And to my surprise I have the same issue.

        It seems that MPlayer is ignoring the window position defined by the module.

        The GUI screen resolution is set to 1920x1080 @60Hz.
        Both xrandr and wlr-randr reflect this.

        On my Pi 4b, connected to a 1600x900 monitor, I do not have this issue.

        I did do an update & upgrade of Debian before looking at the issue, so it can be that something ‘broke’ the module.
        But then again I updated both Pis and only one has this issue.

        I will try to connect the 1600x900 monitor to the Pi 3b, so see if it is a monitor thing.

        All in all very odd.

          Sorry I just got notified of your reply.

          I set the taskbar height to 0 and autohide. I don’t remember the exact steps I took

            I don’t know why but the MPlayer header show up in the latest MMM-MPlayer update, at least in my setup, it does not show up in the previous version. I upgraded and then downgraded.

              Hi, could you please sent me the output of

              $ ps -eaf | grep mplayer | grep -v grep
              

              for the version that is working?

              I am currently busy with a new version, but I messed up a bit by not using a development branch.
              Hope to have sorted that out soon.
              The new version will have a bit different configuration setting than the old one.

              Also refer to
              https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/19539/mmm-mplayer-display-issue
              for the issue I am facing (related to what you are seeing with the new version).

                you can git stash ,
                create/switch to branch, git checkout -b newbranch_name
                git stash pop to move the changes to the branch (before commit)

                  There is a main branch now that contains the original code.
                  And a dev branch that contains the new code.
                  The new code needs a different entry in the config.js.

                          No problem.

                          I discovered the reason why it happens and am busy with a new version.
                          Hope to release it soon (first need to solve an issue with recalculating the window position).
                          Those that are interested can have a look at the README of the dev branch.
