For some reason I am getting horrible video distortions with mpeg-2 video. I can play these files fine with xine, mplayer, or gnomemplayer without trouble which are all using the same mplayer binary.
/usr/bin/mplayer
I'm using the xv output driver but have tried using vdpau and many others, but I either get no video or the same thing.
Am I missing something obvious here?
