Hi,

try to re-compile mplayer without MMX support. just a try, i think there
is a bug in mmx yv12->rgb16 converter...

./configure --disable-mmx
make

and try to play some mpeg in 16bpp.

if it's ok this way, then i'll look into that mmx thing.
for first look it seems to be ok, and it works for me.
