[MPlayer-users] BUG: theora codec and bmovl filter

Hello

I have a strange bug here. It only occurs if mplayer displays a theora video 
and the bmovl filter is used. In this case the first eigth(?) lines of the 
video show a greenish color.

This does not happen, when either the same video encoded as mpeg2 or mpeg4 
is displayed with the same bmovl filter, or when the theora video is 
displayed and no bmovl filter is used.

Interestingly, it is enough to include the bmovl filter on the commandline. 
It is not necessary to send a logo to the specified fifo. Actually, the 
specified fifo does not even need to exist. Only including -vf 
bmovl:0:0:/tmp/fifo is enough to get this bug.

I am using svn mplayer of yesterday (SVN-r29748-4.3.3). libtheora is from 
debian (1.1.0-1)

Is this a bug in mplayer or in libtheora?

Thanks

Michael
