Problem with OpenGL

hi there,

hope you can help me.
(winxp sp2, g4 ti4200, vlc 0.8.2)
my vlc outputs a really messed up video, when playing in opengl mode. picture is kind of turned 180 degrees and it seems to be zoomed or something, because everything is much bigger, but not everything is shown. as if it were cropped. and its a little bit stretched...
and no, i dont have enabled cropping and transformation ;)

in version 0.8.1 for windows this problem does not occur. perhaps it can be easily fixed in a future version...

directx works fine, but i want to use opengl, because i have two monitors and i want to span the vidoe over both monitors and only opengl can do that properly. directx shows only one half with the video and shows the other half always black. or is there perhaps another solution for the directx problem?


any help would be great.
cheers,
-kenichi

hi,
thanks for the quick reply.
i really searched before i asked. but all i found was some stupid proposal of rotating the video.

but after lot of more searching i found this thread:
viewtopic.php?t=11033
where someone said to try a nightly build of vlc which can be downloaded here: http://vthr.via.ecp.fr/~videolan/

i tried version "vlc-0.8.4-svn20050825" and it seems to work fine.
