 2. Usage
 
-     -vo dxr3:<devicenum>		For video output :<devicenum> is not needed unless
- 					you have more than one em8300 device in your computer
-     -vo dxr3:noprebuf			Turn of prebuffering. This is only needed if you are
- 					having sync issues with normal playback, this will
- 					make playback appear less smooth and will not use all
- 					available cpu power when playing non-mpeg content.
- 					Note: With prebuffering A-V: should be negative, if
- 					      it's nonnegative your computer is too slow to
- 					      properly play the video and you should disble
- 					      prebuffering if you have sync issues.
- 					      Without prebuffering this value should stay
- 					      close to 0 at all times.
- 					Note2: Some very fast computers seems to have issues
- 					       with prebuffering. Blame Sigma for that ;).
- 					       You can safely use :noprebuf since your machines
- 					       are fast enough to give you smooth playback anyway.

     -ao oss:<devicefile>		For audio output
     -ac hwac3				For digital audio output instead of
 					analog
     -vc mpegpes				For mpeg playback
     -aop list=resample:fout=48000	If samplerate is below 44100Hz
- 					This does not work with digital audio output
- 					(-ac hwac3)
+ 					This does not work with digital audio
+					output (-ac hwac3)
     <devicenum>				Number of device to use for playback
 				        (if you	have more than one card.).
 					This can usually be left out (-vo dxr3).
