I was incorrect about this it is in my local_conf.py
XINE_ARGS_DEF = "--no-lirc --post='pp:quality=10;expand'"
if CONF.display in ('mga', 'dfbmga', 'directfb'):
XINE_COMMAND = '%s' % (CONF.df_xine)
XINE_ARGS_DEF = '--layer=0 --deinterlace'
else:
XINE_COMMAND = '%s --auto-play=fq --hide-gui --borderless --geometry
%sx%s+0+0 --no-splash' % \
(CONF.xine, CONF.width, CONF.height)
XINE_ARGS_DEF = '--no-lirc'

I suggest that you go back a bit. There are two programs in svn:
testing/Duncan/pygame/alphatest.py and
freevo/contrib/runtime/pygoom-2k4-0.2.0/pygoom-test.py
The first one is a simple test that excludes freevo from the problem
area. It uses pygoom/SDL/X11 or pygoom/SDL/DirectFB/fb to display a
couple of rectanges. Should show almost 0% CPU if the system is working
correctly. The pygoom test does the same thing and shows the frame-rate
that goom can be displayed. Anything over 25 is good. (there is a
goom-sdl program should give similar results)
I would like some similar programs for SDL, DirectFB, and X11 to try to
track down where this sort of problem could be.
If everything is fine then try running mplayer and xine from the command
line and see what the CPU is doing.
