I noticed an offset of certain colors while I was playing my Contact DVD in MPlayer. The problem only occured when I had another window active (in my case, I had X-Chat at the top of the screen with the movie playing on the bottom).
Here are some images I took with my digital camera (GIMP was refusing to take screenshots of the MPlayer window for some reason):
Ellie fondles a radio receiver with color offset (notice the red numbers, green lights).
The blue square in the mid-upper-right portion of the above image is a result of the digital camera (its not something wrong with MPlayer). Likely its a reflection off the monitor.
Same as above, without color offset.
To fix the issue, I simply had to select the movie window to make it active.
Its only a minor bug, and noticing how there's nothing on the MPlayer site that I could see for sending bug reports (if anyone knows of a place to submit bugs, feel free to tell), I figured I'd put it up here.
Relevant info:
I was using MPlayer 0.90-r1, installed via portage.
System information:
CPU: AthlonXP 2100+
Video Card: NVIDIA GF4 4200 (128 MB)
Video Drivers: NVIDIA Drivers (1.0.4363-r1)
Kernel: Gentoo-Sources 2.4.20-R5
For the few minutes after I had encountered the bug, it was repeatable, but it doesn't seem to be now (bug was originally encountered about, oh, 20 minutes ago).
Yeah, its Thursday night, I don't exactly have anything better to do. |

Please report all bugs to bugs.gentoo.org and if the bug turns out to be with a specific application and is not Gentoo specific our developers will then pass the report upstream appropriately. Please also link to your bug report in this thread so that others may reference it and track it more easily.
Regards,
