   Sounds like two problems.  The blue bar is probably the color key 
which shouldn't be visible.  Also, it sounds like the overlay data
is being read from the wrong place.

  Which graphics, which drivers?

[Xpert]Lost video

2002-05-06 Thread Fred Heitkamp

I'm not sure this the right list for this but..
I'm having a strange problem with some video players
I have installed on my system.
I have MPlayer, Xine, and Xmovie all installed.  When
I run every one of those I get sound and the player
seems to be running fine, but there is no video in
the window.  Most of the time there is just a thin
blue bar down the left side of the window. On Xmovie
only, if I stop the movie a still picture (frame)
appears.  I tried installing a new version of X and
recompiling some of the movie players but this has
not helped.  It seems the video stream is going into
a bit bucket someplace.  Does anyone have an idea
of what could be happening?
