Bug Description
I can't play any of my DV (Sony Digital Video) avi files with mplayer in kubuntu hardy heron (as captured by kino). I could with last two versions of kubuntu. I play video, mplayer opens window for video, I can hear the sound but the window with video remains black :-¿? I have installed w32 codecs and the qdv.dll seems OK. In fact, it seems that everything is fine for mplayer but I can see no video.

As you can see mplayer identifies the video and select the right video codec (qdv) but video screen is black.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance!
Are you sure that mplayer is designed to support playing dv files? They're not really video files as such anyway. They're not on the list of supported file formats when looking for a file with mplayer.
Have a look at these:

* Has mplayer been compiled with DV support? http://
