Hi. i have used precompiled RPM's for MPlayer once or twice and i have found out that the developers were right about them. This app seems to need a lot of optimization, as the RPM packages did work slower. and to answer your question: nope. i never encoded using a precompiled mencoder. i like being pretty much on the bleeding edge with MPlayer, and recompile from CVS pretty often. The reason is that it evolves so fast... see ya. Damian -- boot into windows? what has smashing glass with footwear got to do with Operating systems?
