Thats good to know. Somebody on this list told me that I should be using
that option, so I started using it.  I have seen w/h variants that lock
my dxr3 solid. Usually something close to 639/479 (strange). But it will
lock mplayer and my card solid untill i re-initialize the firmware and
kill all mplayer processes.  Those wont work unless I use scale.
