OK, let me try to distill this into documentation.  Currently in the
man page we have

resample[=srate[:sloppy][:type]]
  Changes the sample rate of the audio stream to an integer srate in Hz.
  It only supports the 16-bit little-endian format.

IIUC I would just have to mark this MPlayer only, right?  Like so:

resample[=srate[:sloppy][:type]] (MPlayer only)
  Changes the sample rate of the audio stream to an integer srate in Hz.
  It only supports the 16-bit little-endian format.
