Hi folks, I got mplayer (http://mplayer.sourceforge.net) working very nicely, only that CPU utilization is constantly at 100% (~ 92% user, 8% system) and sound is very broken after 10 seconds playing. The video is fine though.
I have a 333MHz Celeron with MMX, use X 3.3.6 from woody, and have a very shitty 4MB PCI graphic card. My question is if a 333MHz is even fast enough for playing those DIVX files (the one I have is at 810 kbps). I guess that using xv as output would be faster, as I'm currently using x11/shm. But fast enough? How about a better graphic card (e.g. Voodoo3 or Matrox G400) on the AGP? And which output system is faster: XV (using X 4.0.3) or the framebuffer under Linux?
