Well I know some people like that idea to watch movies made from
ASCII chars - but as for my self - I'm using console only to maintain
system when it can't be made withing xfree - thus I don't have the
needs to support this kind of output - of course SDL does support this
output - it wouldn't be probably that hard to add support for this
kind of rendering via sdl - so basicaly SDL support it if it's compiled
with this support - but avifile at this moment is not targeted as
a player for unix terminals ;)

(see mplayer, xine or other fancy player for this)

Well that's no change - both are using rpms :)
(and both seems to have same problems ;))
