Subject: Re: Xv video driver expires after xfree86 upgrade

Up to very recently, I could watch vcd movies on my box using xine video
player with Xv as the video driver. However, I came to discover yesterday
that Xv video driver had become inoperative after either upgrading
xfree86 from version 4.1.0 to 4.2.1 using the deb package or installation
of mplayer 0.9 from the source tarball.
I'm not pretty sure which of the two packages/applications is the culprit
as I installed both of them more or less on the same day but somehow I'm
convinced it must be xfree86 since mplayer too does not show any pictures
(only a blue window screen) with the Xv video driver.
That's a problem with X itself. Most likely, the currently used graphics
driver has a limited or broken implementation of the Xv extensions.
What graphics driver are you using (what video card)? Ist the XVideo
extension
listed in xdpyinfo?
I've attached at the end of this message output from xvinfo, xdpyinfo and
xine. I hope this will be of assistance.
