Thank you. I've commited stuff to mplayer CVS.

Please send me an username/password pair (IN PRIVATE!) i'll create a CVS
account for you.

I'll start to integrate it into mplayer. I think I'll change a few small
things, for example change this method. The quality2mode func will be
called by the autoq rotine (via set_video_quality() in dec_video.c) and
the postprocess() routine always will get flags.

A question: is it hard problem for you removing c++ dependency from code?
On non-x86 systems this file is the only c++ file, and I think it doesn't
uses any special thing why c++ is needed. And as i see on the lists, c++
compilers are very broken nowdays :(
Current c++ dependency comes from:
- bool type
- for(int x;...;...)...
