In case you wonder what happened that I actually send patches first :-)
This adds a general command-line option instead of making it a vo gl
suboption.
My thinking was that this probably could be implemented by some of the
other vos, too, so I thought it make sense like this.
But I don't mind changing it if you think it is better as something
gl specific.
And if you wonder about the why: when running MPlayer on my phone it
ends up displaying a tiny video only, which is kind of bad for actually
seeing if it works or not, particularly as long as I have only about 8
seconds before it makes the phone reboot.
If someone is interested in investigating this (or just in general would
like to play with GL ES without the pain of dealing with the Android
framework), I have written a minimal test-case OpenGL ES program for Android,
using only the NDK and including a compile-and-run script, attached.
