Hey Royce, don't rule out vlc, it works really great. VLC is suited over
mencoder because it handles streams well. And with the vlc option you can
leave your videos as Xvid.
The MediaMVP is not powerful enough to decode Xvid, it can only decode MPEG2
because of dedicated decoder hardware, the CPU on the box is too weak to
decode the video itself, so having VLC transcode your Xvids to MPEG2 on the
fly works great.
Here is the link on how to set this up:
