So it appears that your theory of it being an X server problem with the Xv output is the most likely reason. Obvious next question, what can I do about it or is this a limitation of the graphics card. I.E card can do 1152x864 or Xv but not both! New driver, new Xorg?

So, the next thing you want is to identify whether it's a problem with your Xserver or with Xine's use of the Xv extension. If you have mplayer or gstreamer tools installed, you can try their Xv output. For example, in Gstreamer 0.8 you could try something like gst-launch-0.8 videotestsrc ! xvimagesink and to stress it a bit more gst-launch-0.8 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw-yuv,width=1440,height=1152 ! xvimagesink J. -- Jan Schmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have you been half-asleep?

It sounds like an X server problem with the Xv output. The xvinfo command tells you about the Xv extension that xine is probably using. You might try the xshm output with 'xine -V xshm' and see if that is ok. XShm output will use more cpu, but will avoid the Xv output and might work.

[SLUG] Xine Colour display problem
Sluggers, When I try to run Xine on a FC2 desktop, with xorg 16 bit display and 1152x864 the Xine display comes up with a kind of lime green test pattern with semi-horizontal black lines zig-zagged across the Xine window. It appears to play the video no problems but I can't see it. Some sort of colour table/refresh problem. (All other windows display fine) If I edit xorg.conf and drop back to 1024x768 the Xine window works perfectly. I tried to go up to 24 bit colour but the monitor/card couldn't take it. Any cluesticks. Enlightenment window manager, Trident Blade3D card, generic 17" monitor.
