[MPlayer-users] dxr3: playing back mpeg2 telecine/interlaced movies

Hi,

I use mplayer to drive 2x DXR3 cards (tv-out). Everything works fine, 
except that movies with telecine/interlaced parts do not play correctly: 
the telecine/interlaced frames are shown in reverse order (my 
explanation), making action scenes jump back and forth several times per 
second.

The same movies play fine on computer monitors with every media player I 
tried (including mplayer), on TVs connected to H/W media players (kiss, 
d-link, etc), but also on the same linux box when I use the graphics 
card's tv-out instead of dxr3's tv-out.

All the movies are encoded with mencoder to MPEG2, without 
de-interlacing them.

I am using Gentoo: kernel 2.6.23-gentoo-r6, latest cvs of DXR3 modules 
and mplayer 1.0_rc2_p25993.
Any ideas?

Costa
