[MPlayer-users] Green lines creep into b/w video

mplayer has had 2482 updates since then. It is possible that one of the 
updates addresses part of the problem.

But it relly sounds to me like it is a damaged video file. Have you done 
the rip yourself? I had similar problems once, when a harddisk started 
to arbitrarily alter data bits on its own accord...

If there's no chance to get a better file, you could convert the file to 
grayscale so the lines would be less obvious. Or, design your own custom 
filter which replaces all coloured pixels by an average of surrounding 
gray pixels. In general, damaged pictures can usually be filtered to 
look like something. Damaged audio would be much more of a problem.
