Your Xv driver probably doesn't like non 8-pixel aligned width. It
seems it's quite common, my Radeon VE under XFree86 4.2.0 has the same
bug and there was similiar bug reports in the recent past. You can
either use "-vo sdl" and still get Xv accelerated output or change the
width to be 8-aligned (or more).
