well thats because you didnt add beos support, most other things
open gl, direct3d, libaa, libcaca, fbdev, vidix, dga, xv, ...

are supported, if now someone just wants to add x11 support to ffplay
i guess that could be done as such but with more i really think it would
be a lot more features per work if someone added mplayer/libvo support
(and you added beos vo support to mplayer, or fixed beos to support any
 of the standard vos efficiently)
