[Mplayer-users] Upside down Video Playback

[Nicolas St-Pierre]

It's documented and also happens with ir41_32.dll

If the developers don't see any worth in flipping it so it can be played 
back correctly, then it should be removed altogether.  What's the use of 
having a codec if 1. it doesn't work 2. it won't get fixed.
