I'm trying to get mpeg playback working on my system and a developer for
vlc (Cristophe Massiot) said that the problem is with xvideo since the
same problem occurs when I use other players.  The problem is that when
I play any mpeg video, the frames are cropped to a portion of their
actual size.  A work around is to switch xfree to 16-bit depth and use
the x11 video driver, but this is not desireable.  Here are some specs
for my system:
G4 APG 450
512 MB RAM
yellow dog linux 2.0
Some things that I have added to the standard ydl install:
full ximian installation.
benh's 2.4.12 kernel, compiled myself, stripping away unessecary
XFree 4.1
drivers and extensions; and adding some like pci scsi support.
ATI rage128 w/ 16 MB ram
packages I have tried video play with include
the latest versions of xine and videolan.
