[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Direct3D VO better handling of uncooperative video adapter

Ok, then these days I'll investigate very deep what's happening with
the code before and after the patch - where the crash begins from and
which function returns what. I'll write when I have very exact and
deterministic explanation.
