<P><B>MPlayer</B> can play Vivo (1.0 and 2.0) videos. The most suitable codec
-for this task is XAnim's H263 decoder codec (it supports fast YV12 output), you

+XAnim's H263 decoder codec (it supports fast YV12 output). You can call it with

and install it under <CODE>/usr/lib/win32</CODE> or wherever you store the
Win32 codecs. This latter codec doesn't support YV12 nor YUY2 only BGR modes,
thus usable only with the X11 and OpenGL outputs. Discouraged.</P>
