  I'm curious how different clips would look like in ASCII art. So I'm trying [caca](https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-devices.html#toc-caca).
  
  To just play, I use `mplayer -vo caca $FILE`.
  
  But that creates an output of quite small size.
  
  **How can I change that size?**

  Found. Caca library is driven mostly by environment variables rather than filter params.
  
  ```
  export CACA_GEOMETRY=200x78
  mplayer -vo caca $INPUT
  
  ```
