[MPlayer-users] -ovc divx4 with xivd compiled

hi,

noticed some really odd behaviour when trying to use the divx4 output when 
mplayer has been built using xvid instead of divx4. first strange thing is 
we have BOTH xvid and divx4 outputs listed from -ovc help and divx4 says 

 divx4    - using divx4linux/divx5linux or xvid (depends on configuration)

but using it under the misguided impression that it will encode to xvid 
regardless, it actually seems to encode to rgb or similar at the 
delightful rate of 419430.406 kbit/s super! :)

going by the contents of the docs it would seem that the divx4 option 
should simply not exist when xvid is compiled in. yesnoquestionmark.
