[MPlayer-users] new users, simple: colorspace problem with ATI Rage 128 Mobility

[lebrun]

I recently installed mplayer on my laptop running Linux, created an .avi 
file successfully using mencoder, and got the when trying to see it:

I tried different -vo and -vf, no luck.  Note that the statement :
"1400x1050 with depth 24 and 32 bpp" is correct, I think. What is the 
correct video filers or output for my hardware?

Thanks
