The reason why mplayer crashes (in some cases) when using x11 output and -wid (>0) parameter is this: Mplayer by default creates a colormap using DirectColor visual. If the window given to mplayer uses TrueColor visual there will be an error when mplayer sets the colormap for the window. This patch modifies mplayer to use TrueColor visual if the window given to mplayer uses TrueColor. Another solution is to make sure that the window given to mplayer is created using DirectColor visual if it is supported by the display. Jouni Tulkki <[e-mail]>

Template: mplayer/output
Type: select
Choices: ${vo}
Default: xv 
Description: Which Video Output driver would you like?
 Mplayer can use very wide range of video output drivers:
 ( order aproximately by speed: )
	 * mga, xmga - direct hardware access on MGA cards (G200/400/450), needs /dev/mga_vid
	   this driver can work without X and display video on secondary head of matrox cards
	 * xv - XVideo extensions of X 4.x ( hardware scaling, bilinear filtering )
	 * sdl - SDL library, it can also use hardware scaling, filtering etc 
	 * dga, fsdga - DGA extension.
	 * fsbdev - framebuffer device ( watching movies on text console )
	 * x11 - simple x11 output.
 Please choose carefully because it has tramendous effect on speed.

Template: mplayer/overwrite
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Overwrite /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf ?
 Should I overwrite your current /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf with the one created on the fly based on your answers?

Template: mplayer/cfgnote
Type: note
Description: Create your ~/.mplayer/conf file.
	Remember to read documentation and edit your ~/.mplayer/conf
	(or /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf) file. This binary depends heavily on
	your hardware - which means that it needs tweaking for every single
	machine it's installed to. And it also it means that it will use
	your setup very effectively. Look at /usr/share/doc/mplayer
