Problem description
Some of you may encounter a problem when using X video extension (xv).
Possible solutions
- xvattr
The easiest solution that will affect all players is using xvattr to change contrast and other attributs. For example:

- Configuration for individual players
Some players may allow user to set this in configuration files. For mplayer you can just add line:
- brightness=0
