[MPlayer-users] mplayer segfaults with "-vo sdl"

[Nilmoni Deb]

Using latest mplayer cvs and the latest SDL (Dec 10 tarball).
Running SUSE 8.0 linux/i386 with glibc-2.2.5-38. Compiler is gcc-2.95.3.
Mplayer optimized for i686. Running mplayer as:

	mplayer -vo sdl -noxv file.vob

When I switch to fullscreen mode and then non-fs mode and then again to
fullscreen mode, mplayer crashes. The bug is perfectly reproducible.
The gdb output is as follows:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I am using SUSE 8.0 linux with glibc-2.2.5-38. Compiler is gcc-2.95.3.

While I am not sure if this is a bug of SDL or mplayer or GLIBC, I thought
reporting this may be a good idea. Note that if I use the SDL driver with
xvideo support as in:

	mplayer -vo sdl file.vob

then this crash does not happen. Could it be something to do with SDL
trying to free stuff related to YUV overlay when such overlay doesnot
exist (after all, xvideo is being suppressed) ?

thanks
