 Hello,
 
 When I run mplayer with the XVideo output (-vo xv), a window comes up,
 but stays entirely grey.  No video is actually displayed.  mplayer does
 not issue any error messages.  I verified that xserver-xfree86 version
 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6 does not cause this problem for me.  Other output modes
 for mplayer work fine.
 
 I am using the free software nv driver.  I would be glad to provide
 additional information and/or perform any needed tests.
 
 Thanks very much for looking into this.

While this bug is resolved, please review the following information for
future reference.

You can ignore the request to send mail for this report.

[The following is a form letter.]

Dear bug submitter,

Since the XFree86 X server is a large and complex piece of software, some
more information is required of you before this bug can be handled.  Please
run the following commands from a shell prompt to gather and deliver this
information to us:

$ /usr/share/bug/xserver-xfree86  /tmp/output 31
$ mailx -s Re: Bug#271235 [EMAIL PROTECTED]  /tmp/output

If you do not have a mailx command on your system, you can get it by
installing the mailx Debian package; for example, with the aptitude
install mailx or apt-get install mailx commands as root.  Alternatively,
you can also use a mail command that is compatible with mailx's
command-line syntax, such as mutt.

One very good way to file bugs with the Debian Bug Tracking System is to
use the reportbug package and command of the same name.  The reportbug
program does a lot of automatic information-gathering that helps package
maintainers to understand your system configuration, and also ensures that
your message to the Debian Bug Tracking System is well-formed so that it is
processed correctly by the automated tools that manage the reports.  (If
you've ever gotten a bounce message from the Debian Bug Tracking System
that tells you your message couldn't be processed, you might appreciate
this latter feature.)

Therefore, I strongly urge you to give reportbug a try as your primary
bug reporting tool for the Debian System in the future.

If you *did* use reportbug to file your report, then you're receiving this
message because the information we expected to see was not present.

If you deliberately deleted this information from the report, please don't
do that in the future, even if it seems like it makes the mail too large.
50 kB (kilobytes) of configuration and log data is typical.  Only if the
included information greatly exceeds this amount (more than 100 kB) should
you consider omitting it; instead, put it up on the World Wide Web
somewhere and provide URLs to it in your report, or in subsequent followup
by mailing [EMAIL PROTECTED].

Thank you!

Bug#271235: xserver-xfree86: [nv] XVideo fails silently (but visually) in mplayer

2004-09-13 Thread Andrei Badea 
I'm experiencing this bug too with the same xserver-xfree86 version 
(4.3.0.dfsg.1-7) on the same configuration (NVidia GeForce2 MX400, nv 
driver which comes with XFree86).


MPlayer doesn't show the video and tvtime (which also uses the XVideo 
extension) misbehaves too. The image shows, but it doesn't redraw areas 
previously covered by other windows and in full screen mode only a part 
of the image is displayed).


There are no error messages in the XFree86 log, nor MPlayer nor tvtime 
display any.
