mplayer crashes on playing HQ video


Hey,

My mplayer crashes whenever I try to play HQ video.
Quote:
X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)?,?% 0 0
Clearly, it is because X11 isn't able to give sufficient VIDEO ram for this . I have 128MB onboard 915g graphics and 1GB DDR2 RAM. Shouldn't this be enough? Can't I allocate some RAM to be used as Video RAM ?

any solutions will be nice.

Hi,

Can you post a link to one of the files that is causing the trouble?
