720p Xvid - Mplayer Vs Dvdplayer
« on: May 08, 2007, 06:55:00 PM »

I have a movie encoded with xvid in 720p, and when i watch it with mplayer it drops frames on faster scenes.

However, when i watch it using dvdplayer it never drops a frame! The cpu usage is also much lower than with mplayer, around 70 percent, and mplayer goes all the way to 100. But the picture does not seem quite right, like it is not in full res. When I press black button it mentions among other things "yuv480p". Does that mean that dvdplayer downscales hd videos to 480 lines?

I use latest tech builds...

tnx
