[MPlayer-users] Suddent version dependent CPU usage problems.

[|TEcHNO|]

Hi,

I've been using MPlayer for some time now and I'm having problems 
wathinc certain DivX'es, Don't know whya but some of them just fail to 
work fast enough. The strangest thing is that one of those slow DivX'es 
used to work ok somewhere around pre6 or pre7 while after swithing to 
pre8 (or later) coused that it failed to work propetly, CPU usage 
suddently jumped to 99% ect. I have no idea what could be helpful.

For now I'll guve you my box specs.
Celeron 788mhz
128MB
Ultra ATA/100 HDD
Linux 2.4.19

If anyting else and be useful, tell me.
Oh, and using -nocache sometimes helps.
