[Bug 38939] Re: MPlayer receives BadAlloc when playing very large movies using Xv

 

This issue is still/again present in Jaunty Jackalope. The problem
occurs with totem-gstreamer, but also with VLC player and mplayer. This
can be circumvented by not using Xvideo (all players have options for
this), e.g. use:

mplayer -vo gl
mplayer -vo x11

(as suggested in Bug 493360)

Here is the relevant section of the XOrg.log file:
