But vo=gl or xv works fine for me.
In my case, vo=gl2, vo=gl and vo=x11 all behave the same, with regular pauses. xv is not listed when I type `mplayer -vo help`. So doesn't this indicate that it's perhaps not mplayer itself causing trouble, but rather something system-wide instead? Especially since this regular pause also occurs while I type in text fields in Firefox. Thanks, Mike -- [email protected] mailing list
