<P>And you clever guys come and flame us with gcc 2.96 and binary packages.
Instead of helping users or making patches to help solve problems.</P>
<P>Half of our spare/free time is spent by answering silly mails here and
making newer tricks and checks to configure to avoid such mails.</P>
<P>And there is a balance. On one hand are you, clever guys, saying we are very
bad because we don't like buggy gcc 2.96, and at the other hand there are the
'new to linux' guys who are showing us gcc 2.96 is buggy.</P>
<P>Conclusion: we can't be good. Half of people always will say we are bad.</P>
<P>Maybe we should close the project, make it closed source, commercial, and
provide install support for it. then we could leave current work, so
development could go faster, and we earn lots of money with it and buy a big
house, etc etc. Do you really want it? It seems.</P>

It does, but you have to explicitly specify software scaling (it's SLOW!) with

you must specify the -vm and the -fs switch, and you're done.
Make sure you have the right Modelines in your XF86Config file, and
try if the DGA driver (and SDL's DGA driver, see RTFM) works for you.

Since 0.18pre4 we support libavcodec from the ffmpeg package. It contains
a C language DivX and OpenDivX decoder. The DivX decoder uses YV12 format
for output, thus it should work for you. Compile in libavcodec support.

It's known to work with Utah-GLX/DRI and Matrox G400 card. Also with
DRI and Radeon card. It won't work with DRI others than these.
it will not work with 3DFX cards because the 256x256 texture size limit.

There's no way to do it. Therefore this format deserves to die in flames.
Theoretically you can reverse engineer Real codecs built for Linux (they
are available as .so files), but in practice that's really difficult, even
if you know how the compiler used by Real is making assembler code.

<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1>you
need videobandwidth 1.2*25fps=30Mb/sec To watch such movie in real-time
you need enough power PC: (Celeron-450+DIMM based video card)</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1><b>-
MPEG2 (aka DVD or SDTV):</b> 1024x768@32=3145728</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1>you
need videobandwidth 3*30fps=90Mb/sec In extremal cases (if your video card
supports IDCT decoding) this can be played on the same PC as for MPEG4</font></font>

HDTV (HighData TeleVision):</b> 2000x2000@32=16000000</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1>i.e.

require AGP bus).</font></font>

What memory type should be installed on video card:</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1><b>SIMM</b>
- avoid that</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1><b>DIMM</b>
- good if your video card has 128-bit memory access.</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1><b>DDR</b>
- is far enough for all types.</font></font>
<br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size=-1>Note:
By DGA comparision - there is no any visible difference between video cards
which have installed the same type of video memory.</font></font>
