Very cool, thanks for the tip!  On my box it plays VCDs, large AVIs, MPEGs,
etc. full speed even as pan eats my Athlon 1.2 for breakfast and with a
port building in the background (aviplay couldn't hack it with no CPU
competition).  And full-screen @ full-frame rate = no problem with Xv on my
Matrox G450!  So long vlc, aviplay, xine, and friends.
