[MPlayer-users] r26871 - doesn't abort on fatal error (cannot initialize video driver)

[Christian Lohmaier]

Hi *,

svn version r26871 doesn't abort on fatal error when the video-device
cannot be used, as opposed to previous versions. Concrete:
it goes to endless loop printing

VDec: vo config request - 1280 x 720 (preferred colorspace: Planar YV12)
VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0)
Movie-Aspect is 1.78:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
VO: [xv] 1280x720 => 1280x720 Planar YV12 
Source image dimensions are too high: 1280x720 (maximum is 720x576)
FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver.

over and over again.
Pressing <ctrl>+c once is not enough, I have to press it twice to make
it stop.

Easy to reproduce (here at least, since my on-board video only supports
that small resolution with overlay) by trying to play a video with a
larger resolution than the video card can handle.

Using -vo x11 "works" (well, plays the video, but my system is way to
slow to play it unaccelerated)

Older versions just did return to the console after the "FATAL" message
(as expected)

ciao
