I've been trying to playback several video files on my n900, and I'm getting a strange problem where most of the screen (apart from a little section at the top) is covered by a bright green block. From the part of the video I can see the file is playing back nicely.
I've found this happens with mp4 type files. Has anyone come across this before and is it a known issue?

i've not noticed this but i found that files converted for iphone playback work flawlessly. also, the n900 media player doesn't like b-frames, and is quite selective about the media files it will decode. what codec did you use? xvid or x264?
do you get the nasty green block if you play the files with mplayer?

Ok - mplayer plays the files fine. Gstreamer based players on ubuntu also play them back with no issues. So it's a maemo-specific problem.
mplayer reports the following about the files:
video codec: [ffodvx] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg MPEG-4)
Audio: [faad] AAC (mpeg2/4 advanced audio)
48000Hz, 2ch, s161e, 128.0kbit
[faad] afm: faad (FAAD AAC (mpeg2-4 audio)
Anything more I can try?
