Thanks a lot for these advices. I saw that I didn't have Xv and X11 because I 
didn't installed XFree86-devel. Now it's really fine !

I just have a last question (I didn't find it in DOCS): I use Xv with my ATI 
Rage Mobility 128 M4 (32Mo) on a PIII 800MHz. My screen resolution is 
1600x1200, and it's not as fluid as with low resolution.
I can see also that mplayer don't use very much RAM (less than 1% of my 
512Mo...).
How can I optimize mplayer to have high resolution with a "top fluid" movie ?

Thanks again for ideas or suggestions.

Etienne
