No, this is different issue. Do you know a software that actually
plays such videos correctly?


They play correctly using the builtin OS/2 video player, especially at
the preferred resolution, maybe 240x320. FFplay shows the colours as
washed out and the banding that is mentioned. If I enlarge the OS/2
window to the same size as the FFplay window, it looks somewhat staticy
with vertical lines of static but still much better then FFplay. MPlayer
plays at the correct resolution but has the same issues as FFplay,
banding and washed out colours.
Video for Windows didn't like the fact that I tried to install it on a
drive with over 2GBs free so didn't test under real hardware.

Yes, and the reason MPlayer has the same issues is because it uses FFmpeg to decode the video. Thanks for another "proof". I have used Windows 3.1 in dosbox, and it works "fine" there, albeit with a tiny hint of vertical bands still showing. As I said before, this is probably inheherent to the codec itself.
