<P>VIS accelerated operations from mediaLib are used for mpeg2 video
  decoding and for color space conversion in the video output drivers.</P>


<H2><A NAME="sgi">6.5 Silicon Graphics / IRIX</A></H2>

<P>You can either try to install the GNU install program, and (if you did not
  put it in your global path) then point to the location with:</P>

<PRE>

</PRE>

<P>and then go on with building and installing.</P>


<H2><A NAME="qnx">6.6 QNX</A></H2>

<P>Works. You'll need to download SDL for QNX, and install it. Then run
  MPlayer with <CODE>-vo sdl:photon</CODE> and <CODE>-ao sdl:nto</CODE>
  options, and it should be fast.</P>

<P>The <CODE>-vo x11</CODE> output will be even slower than on Linux, since
  QNX has only X <I>emulation</I> which is VERY slow. Use SDL.</P>


<H2><A NAME="cygwin">6.7 Cygwin</A></H2>

<P>The Cygwin port is still in its infancy. Currently there is no support for
  Win32 DLLs or OpenGL. SDL is known to distort sound and image or crash
  on some systems. <A HREF="tech/patches.txt">Patches</A> are always welcome.
  Best results are achieved with the native DirectX video output driver

<P><CODE>mplayer /cydrive/d/MPEG2/AVSEQ01.MPG</CODE></P>

<P>DVDs also work, just set the DVD device correctly to whatever your CD-ROM
  device is:</P>

<P><CODE>mplayer -dvd &lt;title&gt; -dvd-device d:</CODE></P>

<P>QuickTime DLLs have also been reported to work. Compile with
  <CODE>--enable-qtx-codecs</CODE> and put the codecs into the
  default Windows DLL location, <CODE>C:\WINNT\system32</CODE> or
  <CODE>C:\Windows\system</CODE> depending on your Windows version.</P>
