MPlayer should be able to fullscreen by default.  You type f, when the divx 
comes up.  Failing that it, what kind of video card are you using and what 
output device (It's in the startup info).  You should be able to change the 
output driver so that you can fullscreen. Failing that you can always run 
MPlayer under vesa mode, which i think full screens automatically.
