I'm using totem 2.26 on jaunty.

If you enable the option to automatically resize the window when a new video is loaded, but the video is so large that it doesn't fit the screen, nothing happens. I think the window should be resized to 1/2 of the original size instead, since this would at least show the correct proportions and avoid black borders.

Steps to reproduce:
1. activate the "auto resize" option
2. open a video with a greater resolution than that of your screen

Actual results:
Totem's window will fail to resize, and will keep the previous size and aspect (including two black borders).

Expected results:
It should resize to 1/2 the original video's size instead: at least the window would have the right proportions then.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
