impossible.

this variable is the size of temporary memory buffer for a single mpeg-ES
video frame. nothing to do with input buffering...

as a normal mpeg1/2 video frame is not bigger than 1MB (it means 25-30
megabytes/second!) changing this limit to 16MB won't help :)

if it was fast after modifying it, it was because the file was already in
the linux kernel cache. try to play with old (0x100000) version, it will be
fast at second time.
