[MPlayer-users] "-vo pgm", as quickly as possible

[Arpi]

Hi,

> [Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
> I needed a way to decode MPEG files into greyscale frames, one
> per file, and was pleased to discover that mplayer appeared to
> provide such a feature with its "-vo pgm" argument.
> However, I notice that it tries to maintain the "correct" output
> frame rate as it does this decoding, which for my purposes is
> unnecessary (and slows down the translation!).
> 
> How can I persuade mplayer to produce these .pgm files as
> quickly as possible?
