 You should use a version of mplayer that has
 glamo support. Then scaling is handled by the
 glamo and you will notice a huge difference.

Yes, with that version it's much better now. And the load goes up to 0.7
only. Thank you for that hint.

 The first try was with the quicktime-movie on the SD card.

 I've found on similar devices (keep in mind the FR is only a 400Mhz device)
 that I have to drop the frame rate to something like 15 or so to get
 reliable video out of a player at this resolution.  ffmpeg is a great
 re-encoder for such things.  I think asking the FR to decompress, rescale
 and display an image and video at full rate is a bit of a high expectation.


I'm aware of that limitations. The FR itself is at 15 fps. I converted the
mov to an avi (with mpeg4/mp2 and 10 fps) and it looks much better now, no
hanging during playing. When playing from SD card, the load is constantly at
1.5, when playing from NAND the load varies from 0.9 to 1.5.
