Description Rick Jenkins 2007-02-06 23:44:23 UTC
I can't put it better than "SuperGentooer" did in the forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-372368-highlight-ogle.html

**************************************************************************

Ogle will run with a blank screen with sound after you run applications like MPlayer using Xv, which sets the attribute XV_AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY to 0 after running. The color key needs to be set to 1 for Ogle to work properly. To set this value back to 1 when you want to run Ogle, emerge xvattr and type the following:

xvattr -a XV_AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY -v 1

You can place that line in the script /usr/bin/ogle if you want it to be done automatically.

******************************************************************************

It seems this problem has been around for years. It is still alive today, on a system updated this week. SuperGentooer's workaround works, but the next update of ogle will overwrite the script.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run mplayer
2. Close mplayer
3. Run ogle and open a DVD

Actual Results:  
sound from the DVD and a black screen
