Bug displaying 8-bit grayscale video

[dashesy]

I have made an AVI video in 8-bit grayscale mode using vfw commands.
The bitmap header specifies an 8-bit grayscale video (no compression DIB) of size 640*480 with palette and every thing.
I can see the generated video is playing fine using MS media player, but vlc shows green background !!!

I am a huge fan of VLC, therefore I tried reporting the error to trac. It seems I need to connect to IRC and bottom line it is hard to do, while what I want is to see a perfect VLC so no body uses MS crap.

Anyways, I can send the video (a small version) to any body who also cares.

Put it to Rapidshare, Megaupload or similar service, post link here and I will open trac ticket (if needed).

Thanks, confirmed. This seems to work in upcoming 1.1.0 series so I won't trac this.
