(I tried playing the same DVD under X > (fluxbox) and it was like 40-60% CPU Usage. ) MPlayer has always had higher cpu usage playing DVDs than . . . . any other app, for me. Frankly VLC was my pick, in my celeron days. On my athlon64 it doesn't make a damn bit of difference what app i use. On my HTPC, freevo can't detect a DVD worth a damn so it's a moot question. xvmc is nice & all but, well, anybody know if the mplayer team has any interest in integrating the vemp code? http://sourceforge.net/projects/vemp ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
