Summary: [pix_movie] and [pix_film] only play solid colors

Initial Comment:

On Intel-based machines with ATI cards both Mac OS X and Ubuntu, using Gem checked out from CVS on 2006-12-05, playing movies with both [pix_film] and [pix_movie] just plays solid colors that somehow seem related to the actual movie being played.

This happened on a Dell Dimension 8400 with ATI card:

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)]
0000:01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE]


And on a Mac Pro with Quad Processors and an ATI Radeon X1900 XT.

And on a MacBook Pro with a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600

This also happens on Ubuntu, so its not OS-specific.  I guess I forgot to
mention that.  The above Dell Dimension is running Ubuntu Dapper.

Is there a certain set of ./configure options to try?

This most likely is a problem with the autobuild building pix_film/movie
files which are not the right ones on OSX.  I use the same hardware daily
without problems so the code is certainly fine.  Some #ifdef bludgeoning
might make the autobuild do the right thing.
