hi.

while trying to view some cinepak videos, i found some bugs (all with
MPlayer CVS-020322-05:01-2.95.4, x 4.2.0 and a g400):

- the native cinepak decoder has wrong colours when using the sdl video
  driver (all others i tried work). seems like red and blue got switched.

- the vfw cinepak codec has some problems where it seems like some areas
  aren't updated properly.

- the dga video output looked like it just writes the picture into memory
  without regard to the current resolution, and when doublebuffering was
  enabled it flickered and showed some random stuff from video memory

- when pressing 'f' with the x11 driver mplayer looses focus, and killing it
  kills x completely (i think someone mentioned this already)

- when moving the gl output window it dies with:
  X11 error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)

- the vesa and svga drivers had problems when run from x (though admittedly
  they don't really make sense there): svga didn't restore the terminal
  properly ('reset' fixed that) and vesa switched to textmode (fixed by
  switching to the console and back)

- it would be nice if configure complained about unknown options

bye
