Full screen should be a basic feature. ?Stupid crapple.

I switched my gf to Mplayer-OSX a long long time ago. ?Quicktime was more 
like AnnoyingTime because it doesn't play dvix/mp3 movies natively. ?
Instead she would have to use the dvix.com tool [1] to modify the movie so 
she could play it.

Mplayer-OSX doesn't need no conversion, nor does it charge you for a basic 
feature. (its OSS too)
