[MPlayer-dev-eng] DIRECT RENDERING WITH ANY CARD

[Nick Kurshev]

Hello!

I've implemented direct rendering for any HW (even for matrox g400).
In this connexion, could someone (who has not power CPU) publish
benchmarks which compare performance with and without direct rendering?
(I'm very interested with benchmarks on k6-0-3, Cel1, P2, i.e. cpus
which don't have L2 cache (have no mtrr))

Direct rendering is enabled in case when movie width can be multiple on
pitches of your hardware.
For example when movie width is 360 then such movie can be directly rendered
into video memory upto HW pitch = 32:
360*2 = 720 = 2D0h = 1011010000b
and so on.

Using of direct rendering controls -vaa_dr and -vaa_nodr keys!

Currently it works only with divxds codecs but in future it wuld be posiible to use
that with any other codecs.

Example:
mplayer -vo xvidix (vesa:vidix) -vc divxds -fs -zoom -vaa_dr -benchmark -frames 1000 movie.avi
mplayer -vo xvidix (vesa:vidix) -vc divxds -fs -zoom -vaa_nodr -benchmark -frames 1000 movie.avi

Best regards! Nick
