I tried switching my x server from depth 16 to depth 24, and the
palette issue went away. The video is a little jumpy, and there's not
quite enough cpu left to play the audio without skipping, but it does
work.
There is an issue of little white dots on the screen being drawn where
motion occurs. This doesn't happen when using the x11 output plugin,
so I assume it's an artifact introducted by the xvideo code? I wonder
if someone who knew more about this sort of thing would be able to
figure it out... :)

What I meant to say, was "it wouldn't help the poor people without a
G4"...
