Q: What is the meaning of the numbers on the status line?
     A: Example: A: 2.1 V: 2.2 A-V: -0.167 ct: 0.042 57/57 41% 0% 2.6% 0 
4 49%

         * A: audio position in seconds
         * V: video position in seconds
         * A-V: audio-video difference in seconds (delay)
         * ct: total A-V sync correction done
         * frames played (counting from last seek)
         * frames decoded (counting from last seek)
         * video codec cpu usage in percent (for slices and DR this 
includes video_out)
         * video_out cpu usage
         * audio codec cpu usage in percent
         * frames needed to drop to maintain A-V sync
         * current level of image postprocessing (when using -autoq)
         * current cache size used (around 50% is normal)

Most of them are for debug purposes and will be removed at some point.
