Hmm, i will have a look at it.
Also note, xanim codecs' good point is that they provide YV12 output against
the Win32 ones. This can be good or bad, depending on video out driver.
I prefer Win32 before Xanim becose much more peoples uses Win32 codecs (
yes, becouse they're downloadable from mplayerhq.hu).
