 Alpha in progress drivers, with an Alpha API, put into testers hands with a 
"at your own risk" liability.

 In the end I believe it was accidental code bugs when he was porting the 
automatic letterboxing patch over to work with VDPAU that caused
him to end up with his OSD ghosted over every image displayed via VDPAU.

Even after moving to other machine and OS.

Noone else can explain what caused it bu it followed running the buggy code 
which passed some invalid info to the API :)
