2770 | 59 MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VCD and DVD Notes |
4096 | 60 There are some important notes to take into account here for optimum playback. |
61 MPlayer currently does not autodetect that the dxr3 can playback mpegs. So for | |
62 mpeg files, dvd's and vcd's you have to add -vc mpegpes to tell mplayer that | |
63 you are using a hardware accelerator. Otherwise mplayer will decode the movie | |
64 in software, which is much slower. | |
65 Note that you cannot use -vc mpegpes with movies that aren't mpeg 1 or 2 or | |
66 you will get an error message saying "Can't find codec for video format...". | |
