I've had an experience that might shed some light. Basically
- That video file has got a tiny error in it
- Some of the frames gets decoded into such form that it causes buffer underrun
(or some other problem with the frame)
- Xv forwards it happily to the display drivers for handling the video ov
because the server hosting the file in the first post will likely go
down soon, i upload it to launchpad. See attached file.

By reading through this post, this problem appears to be related much
more to xorg drivers, particularly this savage driver. All media
related apps that use Xv could be listed, but that is quite counter-

I have the same problem, only I have a ProSavage8 KM266/KL266 video card
and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have "savage" Driver.
Can you please detail a way to recover from this crash? Because the only
way I know is restarting the computer (from the power button...).
