The OSD text is white for me when using mplayer -osdlevel 3 -vo vaapi
xxx. If possible, could you update your mplayer ?

I verified the palette takes effect in the following way:

1. Only support P8A8 format in the driver

2. ran the above command and I saw white OSD text

3. Only support P4A4 format in the driver and don't use
3DSTATE_SAMPLER_PALETTE_LOAD0 to load the value to the texture palette,
so the palette keeps unchanged. 

4. ran the above command and I saw black OSD text.

5. Load the right value to the texture palette and ran the above command
again, I saw white OSD text.

Hence I think sample_c with the paletted textures is used in the driver.
