Researching this specific error: 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
Results in this: This usually happens when X doesn't have enough resources to allocate to direct viewing with the xv (XView) driver. This is very often related to DRM/DRI or memory problems. As a work around, try playing the video with the x11 driver instead.
