Not sure if this is related or will help but
when viewing the new LOTR trailer with the pre-built
mplayer-1.0-0.pre2.2plf
it had really bad contrast/brightness (xv driver).
It was way too dark.
I don't watch dvd's (I have no time!) except
for some frame extraction for my research,
so I did not experiement with the contrast and with
different drivers. I just adjusted the contrast by hand.
Couple of days ago I downloaded
mplayer-1.0-0.pre2.4plf
and tested against LOTR again.
Now the contrast/brightness problem seems to be gone.
Not sure if they patched a config file to fix
the problem, or what. But LOTR (and I assume
everything else) looks good. Again the
xv driver is being used (by dafault).
