I downloaded the "Half-Life 2 E3 2004 Demo Video" from fileplanet, and tried playing it with mplayer and xine. It crashes in both after less than a second (maybe a tenth of second). I also tried playing it on WinXP with Quicktime, and it plays fine. So I know it works, and it's not a corrupt file. Note, the video is 709MB.

could you try newer win32codecs ?
I emerged the last unstable version of win32codecs (20040427 to be exact) and I still get the crash. Should I do that --enable-debug and provide a backtrace? Should I go upstream with this bug?
Can you please try and re-create this using the latest xine (_rc5-r2)?
Same error with xine-lib-1_rc5-r2
In order to best help get this resolved, a good idea would be to have this movie you're refering to avaliable. Please post any links/etc. you may have to help further address the issues.
I would close this bug. It's not a huge problem, and it's more likely a bug with xine, mplayer than gentoo. Plus, I don't feel like keeping with huge video around on my hard drive anymore. It's available of fileplanet in case your interested though.
Works with the latest win32codecs and mplayer pre5-r4.. though: mplayer -vc qtsvq3 hl2_fulldemo_e32004.mov you sort of have to over-ride the codecs. If you find one doesn't work, you can simply: mplayer -vc help to get a list of codecs. It's somewhat trial by error :).
