Im not even sure what my card is exactly, XF86, SuperProbe, /proc/pci and
the website all give slightly different names for it: "ATI Mach 64 RageII+DVD"
whatever that is is one of the descriptions. So I spose no vidix :)

Read the docs for an hafl hour or so last night and discovered many interesting
things, but not exactly why it wont scale except what you said which is
what STDERR  told me ("no scaling for YV12"). Sorry if its elsewhere in
the docs, will keep looking - thanks for your help.

I did discover -vo vesa:dga though - wonder if it really helps?
