THe 'f' key is still not working with -vo xvidix, i had a look
at it but couldnt find out what the problem is.
Also the aspect stuff from xmga should be fully ported to xvidx
(there are parts of it in there, but it's not working)

I can do testing of solaris here at the eth (though sound isnt working with -ao sun :-(

Maybe we should now decide whether we keep the html docs for another
release or do the transition to a new system now. But if we do it
it has to be done quickly. I could help a bit whithin the next two
weeks until the semester starts again.

It should be possible to find one here at the eth, i'll ask.
