Xv -- unusable colors with Xv/auto driver & i915GM



Hi,

when playing any video with kaffeine 0.8.1 (KDE 3.5.3, Xorg 7.0.22,
xserver-xorg-video-i810 1.5.1.0-2, Debian/testing) with i915GM video card
(Dell Inspiron 2200), I have totally sc.ewed up colors with Xv driver (or
auto, which probably uses the same) -- it looks like scientific images with
artificial colors -- most of the colors are blue. Decoding is apparently OK
(it doesn't matter what kind of video file or DVD I try to play), and the
problem is probably in Xv driver (ffplay does the same).

Does anybody have explanation/workaround how to fix Xv on this card (aside
from using unusably slow Xshm driver; trying OpenGL driver, which seem to
work well, but it seems be slightly slow -- moreover I cannot persuade
ffplay to use OpenGL display)?

Best,

Matěj
