Cool.

Grrr.  I was fearing that.

The ones I see are definately vertical, and of the drivers I can test
here, it only seems to be a problem with vesa, Xv and SDL.

This definately is a playback problem.  I can make it look good using
xmga, or x11.

Like in the beginning, see the blurring effect in the "NBC" logo on
the bottom right, or the tagline in the red background on the bottom
left?  Those are perfectly clear when played with something other than
vesa, xv or sdl.

I wish I could do a screenshot but because this problem is with Xv
vo, I can take a screenshot but the Mplayer window comes up black (of
course).

I think something worth noting here is that my Xvideo capable screen
is made up of an ATI RageIIC with the Gatos driver and a G400 (first
display, not the TV-enabled, no BES second display) in a Xinerama
configuration.  The Xvideo interface only addresses the first display
of the screen however.

But the vesa test I am doing is on a completely different machine with
a Radeon card in TV-out mode.
