hi

Indeed I have no access to bugzilla, so yes you can file this
information.

Glad it has helped in a way.
I just downloaded sources to see differences between 3.5.12 and 3.5.13
but I'm not used to object cpp programming so, it's a bit hard to
understand what to look for for me.

I was thinking that maybe the change of Qt to Tqt references have messed
up something somewhere and tried to see in a Qt configuration interface
if colors would show, but nothing comes to my eyes as a clue and I may
be on a wrong way ;).
In fact it looks like some hidden default colors are used (ugly orange
green and red mix lol ;)) .

Anyway, everything looks great for the rest :D 


Thanks again for all ;)

> Bug report 727 was filed against the OSD colors. Reading the report discussion reveals the colors are estabalished in xine-part/kxinewidget.h, which is from where libxinepart.so gets built. We haven't investigated further. We still need to determine whether Qt3 is playing a role because the code in Kaffeine 3.5.13 is identical to Kaffeine 0.8.8, which I have installed in KDE 3.5.10 on the same hardware and do not experience the problem.
