[MPlayer-users] option flip causes black screen and hanged system

The problem should only appear in combination with the pp filter, the
problem was that the flip filter was inserted _before_ it, which can't
work (-vf flip,pp should cause the same problem while -vf pp,flip should
work).
Still this can't crash your whole system unless your kernel is broken...
Although you maybe don't know all the tricks to make a linux system
usable again ;-)
Anyway, fixed in CVS.
