Thank you, confirming the crash as well as playback issues with ff*vdpau
and ff*vdpauold fixed with MPlayer r37316 built atop of the FFmpeg
patched with

http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2014-November/164805.html

and the other patch

http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2014-November/164804.html

already incorporated (ffvc1vdpau{,old} and ffmpeg12vdpau{,old} tested as
