ATI 8.28.8 mplayer xv crash

  Hello all,
             I have discovered that since updating ATI drivers (3 weeks 
ago?)
mplayer always crashes my machine if the xv video out display is used.

In my xorg.conf I have a line in "device"
    "VideoOverlay" "on"
If I comment it out I get no xv, and no crash.

This is with a Radeon Mobility 300 driver
 kmod-fglrx-8.28.8-1.2.6.17_1.2174_FC5
and
xorg-x11-drv-fglrx-8.28.8-1.lvn5


It used to work, with older drivers.
  Has anyone a solution to this?
        Thanks,
                  Bill
