No video output

[hanky]

I've built VLC media player 1.1.13 from sources and now I'm trying to launch it under some special version of Centos 5.
The problem is that I can't see the video when I try to open some media files, I just get the black screen.
Here's the log:

Code: Select all

VLC media player 1.1.13 The Luggage (revision exported) LibVLC has detected an unusable buggy GNU/libc version. Please update to version 2.8 or newer. Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_ADDRESS") Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_BUS_TYPE") [0x165e150] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface.

Audio output works fine and I can even stream video over the network.
I can get some video only if I set the video ouput option to 'GNU/Linux framebuffer video output'. But in this case the video is unproportionally streched to the half size of the screen and has some kind of invertered colors (pink and purple mostly).

Also I can successfully play my video files with the ffplay utility which is shipped with my OS.
