I believe current SVN versions should create the initial off screen surface at display size not video size (as of 1/27, r28379), so depending on how much earlier your current code base is, you might give a shot at a more recent version just for the heck of it. Though I suspect there aren't material differences regarding the basic surface creation.

Much more likely is that it's something to do with the D3D support related to the the VIA chipset driver compared to the driver for your other system(s) video chipsets. Have you tried running mplayer with verbose logging (-v) to gather a few more of the internal vo_direct3d messages? Maybe it has something to do with the format mapping that goes on between media format and display format - e.g., maybe the VIA chipset D3D driver doesn't support the same formats, which prevents prev->movie_src_fmt from being established properly, which then becomes an invalid parameter to the offscreen surface creation call. Otherwise, not sure what else to suspect. Perhaps you'll be better off with directx and/or gl on that system? -- David _______________________________________________ MPlayer-users mailing list MPlayer-users@xxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users
