No, in principle piave should fall back to RGB overlay or no overlay at all. 
So if you try "pplay -V xv <file>" you get a black screen too? I concider it a 
bug if piave doesn't detect missing overlay correctly, however, you can also 
force piave to use RGB. Unofrtunately, I think, kdenlive doesn't support this 
right now. You can test if it works in principle with "pplay -V rgb"
If any of the option (-V xv or -V rgb) produced invalid output, could you 
please send me the verbose output (-v) (in private if it is too lengthy).

Cheers,
Rolf
