-   two ways of doing this:
-   1. Download and install ffmpeg from ffmpeg.sourceforge.net.

  From here on compilation (of at least my code ;) should go without

 DIVX Notes
-When playing divx's add "-vc odivx", if you get any other divx codec
-to run faster tell me which one because I'll be interested in how it
-could possibly be any faster than OpenDivX4Linux...
+When playing divx's add "-vc odivx"
+I've switched to mp1e from ffmpeg so it should be lightning fast now.
