[Bug 152393] Kaffeine reports assertion failure, displays horizontal lines

[Andreas Gustafsson]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kaffeine-xine

When I try to view video (for example, a DVD) using Kaffeine on my Ubuntu 7.04/i386
system, the image is transformed into  horizontal lines, as if you took one pixel
from each video line and duplicated it horizontally across the entire window.

If I start Kaffeine from a terminal window, I can see it continously spewing
the following error message to the terminal:

  assert: vo_scale.c:82: _x_vo_scale_compute_ideal_size: Assertion
`this->gui_pixel_aspect != 0.0' failed.

I can partially work around the issue by selecting Settings /
xine Engine Parameters / video / Expert Options and checking the
"output_disable_scaling" checkbox.  When I do that, I get
a normal picture, except it is not scaled to the window size.

lspci identifies the graphics chipset as:

  01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon
Xpress 200]
