It occurs on any video card which has not enough memory to allocate both
desktop and YUV overlay. If you reduce the size of the screen (ctrl + alt + '+'
or '-' is your friend :) it may work well.

I have a TNT with 16Mo, the same thing occurs when I am in 1600x1200x16 but not
in 1280x1024x16 even if the virtual screen is 1600x1200x16, a little bit
strange no.

moreover SMPEG has the same problem :)

PS: subscribe to vlc at videolan.org to ask your questions and get the answers,
it's easier for us.
