Public bug reported:

Running aviplayer under dapper on a toshiba satellite 2550cdt (~200MHz
~200MB 800x600) gives an apparent off by one error which manifests as a
vertical line of not quite randomly changing coloured pixels down the
right hand margin.

This happens whether the window is maximised or not.

Putting another window over the active video window results in the
anomalous vertical line appearing at the left edge over the overlaying
window.

This does not happen on other computers running dapper here.

I would flag this as a security vulnerability because I don't know that
this doesn't result in memory corruption at the left hand edge and
because I don't know where the data which is filling the rightmost
column is coming from however the package is from "universe" and I
understand that such a flag would be ignored.

I'm more than happy to poke about for more information, but you'll need
to tell me where.
