[MPlayer-users] BUG with -vop pp=help

yes, it's a known issue. there was a discussion on -dev-eng list few months
ago. the problem is that libpostproc should be mplayer-independent so it
cannot exit mplayer cleanly (calling exit_player()) and if getch2() was
inited before then console will remain unusable.

there was no better (and acceptable) solution, so we left it as is.
