Yep, I think I can reproduce it. Try this in main:
1. Open any book, switch to landscape mode.
2.
Code:
[root@kindle us]# zcat harvey.gmv.gz |./gmplay
Segmentation fault
3. Switch back to portrait mode.
4. gmplay works again.
So the rotation setting seems to "physically" rotate the underlying device (if you know what I mean). You can even verify this by setting the device to portrait inverted -- gmplay will also play "upside down".
