Ok, I take back my last statement... I found this nice comment in 
Player.cpp where Gui::Init is called:

        // Initialize gui (we need argc/argv for this)
        // note that this will also initialize the renderer
        // which is *required* during movie loading
        _gui->init(argc, &argv);

Any comments on this if in the current code the renderer is still needed 
during movie loading? IIRC some time ago there was a discussion about 
render calls while parsing. Is this still up-to-date or were there some 
changes in the meantime?

If it's absolute necessary to have the renderer created before the 
parser starts it could be a solution to have an extra function to 
retrieve the movie size, so the renderer and the gui already know about 
the initial movie size.

For example:
get_movie_size(&width,&height)
_gui->init(argc, &argv, width, height)
load_movie()
