AUDIO_ENCODING_LINEAR8 format is not available on sunos 5.5. Format is unsupported in mplayer for now, to get the code compiled on that old version of the OS.

Some benchmark values
=====================

* OLD! MPlayer is even faster now :)

Test system: Abit BE6-2 mb, Intel Celeron2-566 @ 850Mhz, Matrox G400 MAX
Linux: Slackware 7.0, kernel 2.4.0-test8, glibc 2.1.2

MPEG 1/2 Video codec CPU usage in percent (%) :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Setup: mga_vid YUV, MMX idct, no mtrr settings
2. Setup: mga_vid YUV, SSE idct, with mtrr settings
3. Setup: Utah-GLX OpenGL + software C YUV->RGB, SSE idct
4. Setup: X11 Shm (32bpp) + software MMX YUV->RGB, SSE idct, with mtrr
5. Setup: null output (codec speed only)
6. Setup: X11 4.0.1e + Xv extension, SSE idct, with mtrr
