Sorry, I meant to say "defaulting to autodetection". Can we default to autodetection but first ask the user in a more friendly manner wether she wants to acceleration at all ?

Anyway, AFAICT it's impossible that mplayer can figure out how Beryl is going to perform 3D rotation to its video display (see the screenshot I sent before), unless -vo x11 is used or some hack is added to Beryl. -- Robert Millan ACK STORM, S.L. - http://www.ackstorm.es/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
