I used to get exactly this problem with my mediabeast &
mplayer. Broken mpegs would cause incorrect date to be sent to the
G400 hardware which would somehow put it in a state where the entire
display was green / purple. Video playback would continue, in a
strange green and purple world...

Switching mplayer to use ffmpeg to decode the mpeg streams solved the
problem for me.
