# 3.1. The Video Context Menu

The Video Context Menu can be reached by right clicking inside the video window, while a movie is loaded.

Video Information

  Displays a popup with information about the currently loaded movie, including the number of frames, the type of encoding, and it's original pixel size.

Open File

  Opens a standard KDE "open file" dialog box, with predefined filters for the file formats supported by AKtion.

Setup

  Opens the Setup dialog, where you can configure AKtion's behavior

Original Size

  Resizes the AKtion window to the original size of the movie. This obviously has no effect unless you've already resized the movie at some point.

Half Size

  Resizes the AKtion window to half the original size of the movie.

Double Size

  Resizes the AKtion window to double the original size of the movie.

Maximized

  Resizes the AKtion window to the maximum size possible to fit on your screen. The movie will maintain it's own aspect ratio (that is, the relationship between it's height and width) rather than distorting to fit your screen. A tall thin movie will still be a tall thin movie, but now maximized so that the largest dimension matches your screens largest dimension, with the exception of permanent screen features such as the Kicker panel.

Full Screen

  Lets AKtion take over your screen.

  Much more information is available in Section 2.2
