Looks like some colours on your GUI match the colour key which Xv uses. You can
change the colour key value to avoid this. There should be a line like:
- <programlisting>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;video.XV_COLORKEY:2110</programlisting>
+ <programlisting>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;video.device.xv_colorkey:2110</programlisting>
in your <filename>~/.xine/config</filename> file where you can change the colour that's used
by xine for the video overlay.
