Sorry for sending this mail to this address, I had intended to send to 
the mailing list.  Anyway, I was just letting you know that I do have 
both a libaviplay.so.0 and a libaviplay-0.6.so.0, the former of which had 
the great performance.  I unfortunately do not know exact build date of 
the older one, but the timestamp on it is July 19.  In any case you know 
it is before the library was renamed, which in my case was very 
fortunate.  I have an Xtheater that is still linked to that copy of the 
library, and that is how I am able to still see the nice performance.
So now I can reproduce this problem at will now :)

So the Output of the *fast* libaviplay.so from a month or so ago:
Using Win32 dll library: /usr/lib/win32/mpg4c32.dll
Decoder is capable of YUV output ( flags 0x1 )
Video Depth 16
Video decoder thread lowered priority to 16
Audio decoder thread lowered priority to 15
Creating YUV overlay for width 640, height 360, fourcc 0x32595559
Checking direct... 
Direct mode is ON

And from the really poorly performing "libaviplay-0.6.so.0" I compiled 
this afternoon, the only difference being a warning about unsupport YUY2,
everything else is same, and there is no change to the win32 directory 
between tests:

Using Win32 dll library: mpg4c32.dll
Video Depth 16
Video decoder thread lowered priority to 16
Not installing SIGFPE handler...
Audio decoder thread lowered priority to 15
Creating YUV overlay 640x360, fourcc 0x32595559 (YUY2)
Win32: WARNING: Unsupported color space 0x32595559  (YUY2)
Loading subfont: "adobe-times"
Using antialiased Xft renderer: yes
Failed to open font
Checking direct... 
Direct mode is ON

I know the older mpeg-4 avis are few and far between nowadays, but the 
performance loss was just so great I thought I'd flag it down :)  Let me 
know what you figure out, thanks.
