	I just know how it frustrates me that MPlayer can't figure out
that it's supposed to fall back on the x11 vo target when playing RGB
video data. It complains that the xmga target doesn't support the
required video format and exits. This bites me often since I hack on the
codebase (especially on RGB-based codecs) and when I start a session, I
always forget about this error and I think that I broke the program
(again).
