It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.

Try running the same command again as root. If it works as root, you might need to add yourself to the video group (I'm assuming that this is a permissions problem) with this command:

I have exactly these same problems with mplayer and xine on my x86 setup (Epia SP8000E, C3-800Mhz, CN400 Unichrome chipset)

Did you ever solve it?

I've been looking all over for days for soltions (or even an explaination of what is happening) of "BadAccess" and "BadValue" problems in X, lotsa people have these problems but noone has written how they happen and how to fix them (for most people, they just go away somehow??)

I've got exactly the same problem. I think the problem arose first when I upgraded to xine-lib-1.1, but I'm not sure.

I've just now run into a similar problem and I'm curious to know how this was solved, if indeed it has been.

I solved my problem (I was getting "BadAccess" and "BadValue" errors when running mplayer or xine with -vo xm or -vo xmvc parametrers, it did work with -vo x11.

The problem was, xv (and xvmc/xxmc) need "System V IPC Support" configured in the kernel. I had deactivated this because the kernel help text on it sounded to me like it wanst very commonly used. As soon as I turned it back on, it started working, at least most of the time.

I still get similar errors (X11: BadValue , invalid window parameter, or something like that) when I specify -fs though (fullscreen in mplayer), havent solved that yet.

Mmmh, unfortunately I have System V IPC support already enabled.. but thanks anyway

To wake up an old thread, I had the same issue as arnolde, I had removed the System V IPC support from my kernel. I have reenabled the option now and everything is back to normal.

arnolde thank you very much for sharing.
