I'm sorry to hear that... well, I wish I could help you here, but I
don't have the hardware to test it. :-(.
See, that's the problem with how MPlayer developpement works: were's
so paranoid about what we commit (and about the flames be may get from
it) that things that can't be tested have a great tendency to get
ingnored).
What was that patch again?
Could you send a reminder to it? I'll try to have a look at it, but I
can't promise anything.
