 this toppic seems to be old:
 
 
 http://lists.helixcommunity.org/pipermail/video-issues/2004-December/000009.html
 
 In my opinion:
 
 
 a) the mplayer initializes the XVideo extension correct, but leaves it in a
 "dirty" state
 
 b) the vlc player does no initialisation (to work fine) but it leaves the
 XVideo extension in a corrct state (means unchanged)
 
 
 Finally - both players should be fixed:
 
 a) the mplayer should set the state of XVideo extension into the
 default state after finishing
 
 b) the vlc player should initialize the XVideo extension correct -
 maype another player crashed so an initialisation is needed
