[G4] Apple's DVD Player shows interferences while playing video

[sr ferenczy]

its most likely due to the flashed PC graphics card (especially if it 
is not an ATI card) many of the 3rd party ATI vendors on the PC side of 
things use hardware that was off-spec compared to the Apple OEM ATI 
cards, thus causing problems like the ones you are seeing when the card 
is flashed with a mac ROM.
