 MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VCD and DVD Notes
-There are some important notes to take into account here for optimum playback.
-MPlayer currently does not autodetect that the dxr3 can playback mpegs. So for
-mpeg files, dvd's and vcd's you have to add -vc mpegpes to tell mplayer that
-you are using a hardware accelerator. Otherwise mplayer will decode the movie
-in software, which is much slower.
-Note that you cannot use -vc mpegpes with movies that aren't mpeg 1 or 2 or
-you will get an error message saying "Can't find codec for video format...".
-
+MPEG 1/2 content should now automatically be detected by mplayer and it will
+use the hardware acceleration of the DXR3 to play it. If not, you can force
+it to hardware acceleration with -vc mpegpes. Also, if you plan to use any
+postprocessing filters you must use -vc mpeg12.
