Ok, i see what you are doing. Does mplayer -v say anything
special? (I doubt it, but...)

I only have the specs of the G400, which are compatible
enough to get the G550 working, but i don't know whether
there are any subtle differences.

I think what happens is that the G550 expects the data
in field(Halbbild) form for the interlaced modes, though neither
mga_vid nor MPlayer are prepared for this.

If you have time at your hand and want to imporove mga_vid/MPlayer
to be able to use interlaced modi, please feel free to do so.
