Hello,

We are trying to fix an issue with the p96pip driver of MPlayer
where we are not able to set a correct bg color ... If we set it to black on a P96PIP window, as a result we get a pinky or a green background when opening.

Using P96PIP_SourceFormat, RGBFB_YUV422CGX

Tried with " RectFillColor(rp, 0, 0, 320, 200, fillcolor); //Y0-V0-Y1-U0"

being fillcolor default 0x00800080 and can be changed via FILLCOLOR=FC argument

I heard somewhere that the problem is related to a bug in the ATIRadeon.chip that was never fixed, and that the workaround for this is replacing the driver "Sys:Kickstart/ATIRadeon.chip" with an older version that still supports the pixel format R5G6B5.

Does anyone know which version is bug-free among those available, and is there any possibility to resolve this bug in a eventual new version of the driver?

My version of the ATIRadeon.chip is 53.29

Apparently it's a bug/regression of ATIRadeon.chip driver that, at least in MPlayer always trying to open a YUV pixel format instead of R5G6B5
This causes in p96pip driver of MPlayer an unpleasant pinked (or other colored) background issue while launching a video
Another program affected of this is DvPlayer, this time in the background area of its about window...

Is there anyone who can open a ticket and report the problem?

Updated BZ entry with link to this thread/post, in case helps.

Thanks Javier
