Really sorry for being late & thanks for your reply

That's the same output that i get, but the picture is bad
"i tried the updated xfree 4.3 driver but that didn't help"
I don't know, I'll try to contact the driver maintainer and see perhaps that's a known bug
or maybe it's a problem with ffmpeg ?
