-nortc is now the default, document -rtc instead. Change the description of -rtc and -softsleep.

.B \-nomouseinput (X11 only)
Disable mouse button press/\:release input (mozplayerxp's context menu relies
on this option).
.
.TP
.B \-nortc (RTC only)
Turns off usage of the Linux RTC (realtime clock \- /dev/\:rtc) as timing
mechanism.
.
.TP
.B \-playing-msg <string>
Print out a string before starting playback.
The following expansions are supported:

See \-input cmdlist for a list of slave commands and DOCS/tech/slave.txt
for their description.
.
.TP
.B \-softsleep
Use high-quality software timers instead of the RTC.
As precise as the RTC without requiring special privileges.
Comes at the price of higher CPU consumption.
.
.TP
.B \-sstep <sec>
Skip <sec> seconds after every frame.

.B \-rtc (RTC only)
Turns on usage of the Linux RTC (realtime clock \- /dev/\:rtc) as timing
mechanism.
This wakes up the process every 1/1024 seconds to check the current time.
Useless with modern Linux kernels configured for desktop use as they already
wake up the process with similar accuracy when using normal timed sleep.

.TP
.B \-playing-msg <string>
Print out a string before starting playback.
The following expansions are supported:

See \-input cmdlist for a list of slave commands and DOCS/tech/slave.txt
for their description.
.
.TP
.B \-softsleep
Time frames by repeatedly checking the current time instead of asking the
kernel to wake up MPlayer at the correct time.
Useful if your kernel timing is imprecise and you cannot use the RTC either.
Comes at the price of higher CPU consumption.
.
.TP
.B \-sstep <sec>
Skip <sec> seconds after every frame.
