[MPlayer-users] "-wid" problem: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter); embedding MPlayer into a java SWT application

[Marco Trudel]

Hello list

I embed MPlayer into a java SWT application using the "-wid" option. A 
minimal java example can be found here:

needed too:

It works perfectly on windows. It fails on linux with:
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
   Major opcode of failed request:  2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes)
   Resource id in failed request:  0x80b7488
   Serial number of failed request:  47
   Current serial number in output stream:  50

I tried with
- MPlayer v1.0pre8 and v1.0pre7
- SuSE Linux 10.0 and 10.1
- SWT built for GTK and Motif

All fail. Has anyone an idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm sitting on this 
for two days already and google wasn't much of help... What more 
informations can I provide?

Any help really highly appreciated...


thanks
Marco

development related...
