[MPlayer-users] 2nd TIME! on workspace/virtualw change frozen and blocking image is left

[Hunter Peress]

i emailed the list "23 Sep 2002" about this and got no response. now i
signed up. 

So in blackbox, i change workspaces while a movie is playing, and a
frozen image just stays there (audio keeps playing). the image cant be
moved. 

In enlightenment i see similar behaviour, but its interesting: when u
switch to different workspaces in E, it does it very slowly (eg moves
the screen). When i do this, the "frozen" image almost moves off the
screen. There is a way to switch between workspaces faster..(eg an
instantaneous switch like blackbox). and when i do this, the same frozen
image situation happens. 

Whats up??
