Dmitry, I found something new. The game is calling ICLocate [1] with the
negative height in the LPBITMAPINFOHEADER lpbiOut.

The game installs its own iccvid.dll inside the game folder, on XP I deleted
this dll and the video NO longer plays (the game requires an older version of
iccvid to work). In wine I forced iccvid as native (confirmed by not having
debug traces anymore) to check if videos would render and they ARE displayed
correctly. So:

XP + system32 iccvid = NO VIDEO
XP + game iccvid     = GOOD VIDEOS
Wine + built iccvid  = NO VIDEO (due to negative biHeight check)
wine + game iccvid   = GOOD VIDEOS

This bug could be potentially invalid but it looks like wine iccvid could still
cope with negative biHeights like the old versions of iccvid, I see no harm in
that.

By old version I mean:
XP version of iccvid   = 1.10.0.13
game version of iccvid = 1.10.0.6
