  you got it!
  although vo is directx in both cases, here is what mplayer reports in the same line:

    for the first-played video:

      VO: [directx] 720x576 => 768x576 Planar YV12

    for the second-played video:

      VO: [directx] 720x576 => 768x576 BGRA

  and here is the reason why (not that i get it):

    for first-played:

Starting playback...
VDec: vo config request - 720 x 576 (preferred csp: Planar YV12)
VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0)
Movie-Aspect is 1.33:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
VO: [directx] 720x576 => 768x576 Planar YV12
A:  50.6 V:  50.6 A-V:  0.029 ct:  0.106 122/122  1%  0%  1.9% 0 0

    for second-played:

Starting playback...
VDec: vo config request - 720 x 576 (preferred csp: Planar YV12)
Could not find matching colorspace - retrying with -vf scale...
Opening video filter: [scale]
VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0)
Movie-Aspect is 1.33:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
SwScaler: using unscaled Planar YV12 -> BGRA special converter
VO: [directx] 720x576 => 768x576 BGRA
A:   0.9 V:   0.9 A-V: -0.002 ct:  0.050  24/ 24  6%  5%  0.0% 0 0

  since i went this far, i took trouble to photograph two images from the movie, they can be found here:

  now what?
