Bug#602708: Video output is X-compressed to 25% and colors are off

Package: vlc
Version: 1.1.3-1
Greetings!
Any video I try to play is reduced in size and only on the left quarter of the
video area, the rest of the video area is black. Further, the colors in the
video are off, you can still recognize the content though. Lastly, there are
horizontal stripes, somehow like interlacing gone wrong.
When I just run vlc, I get this:
| uli at fruitbox:~$ vlc
| VLC media player 1.1.3 The Luggage (revision exported)
| Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_ADDRESS")
| Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_BUS_TYPE")

When I drag'n'drop a video onto the window, I get this:
| swScaler: pal8 is not supported as output pixel format
| [0x103aaf58] swscale scale error: could not init SwScaler and/or allocate memory
| [0x103bb5d8] xcb_xv generic error: no available XVideo adaptor
| object not accessible
| [swscaler @ 0x1042cf30] No accelerated colorspace conversion found from yuv420p to rgb4.
| object not accessible
The first three lines of this are in red, I'm not sure what this means.
In any any case, VLC itself doesn't display any error, this is only on
the commandline.
About the system, it's an old MacMini G4, a big-endian CPU, using a
Radeon graphic chip. I've also attached the output of xvidinfo in case
this gives some insight.
Cheers!
Uli
