GL-test/   - it was to test opengl (vo_gl) performance, but since vo_gl
  was rewritten several times since that, it does not give usefull results
mpfc/      - font creator, use subfont-c instead (or use builtin ttf support)
subfont-gimp/ - same

alaw-gen.c - it must stay here, do not delete.
             it is not useful anyway, never was, it's here to solve some
             license issue (it is teh tool to use sox for alaw/ulaw
             table generation which is used by mplayer, but sox is not gpl)

asfinfo.c  - probably obsolete, can be deleted (use -identify or such option)
audio-select.c - same story as audio-block*, delete!
avi-fix.c - some new tool by me to fix broken avi files, do NOT delete
blocking.c - "non-blocked disk reading test" - delete, i cant see any use of it
buffer.c - the prototyp/testbed of ao_sdl.c buffering code, may be deleted
cache.c, cache2.c - the prototyp/testbed of cache2.c of libmpdemux, delete
calcbpp.pl,countquant.pl - afaik its useful, see docs/tech/encoding-tips.txt
cpuinfo.c  - the prototyp/testbed of ../cpuinfo.c, delete, or NO, WAIT,
     it maybe still used to simulate /proc/cpuinfo on non-linux systems
     by ./configure?
divx2svcd - afaik it's vmiklos' masterpiece
dump_mp4.c - mpeg4-es stream inspector, may be deleted (useful though)
dvd2divxscript.pl - yet another dvdrip4dummies script
fastmem.sh & fastmemcpybench.c - benchmark/testbed for fastmemcpy stuff, keep it
mem2dump.c - like bios2dump, dunno its purpose/use
menc2pass  - yet another dvdrip4dummies script
mencvcd  - yet another *->vcd converter script
midentify - lol
movinfo.c - like asfinfo.c, a bit more useful (keep it, until all .mov bugs
   are fixed (never?))
mp.pl - wtf? playtree emulator? :)
mpconsole - yet another wrapper script
perlbench.pl - somewhat related to fastmemcpy tests?
plotpsnr.pl - sounds serious
png2raw.c - .raw file creator, afair used by .raw font creators (ppl+apps)
subedit.pl - dunno, its big and has nice comment :)
subrip.c - vobsub+gocr->.srt converter or such, keep it
sws-test - swscaler test, keep
usleep-test.c - silly usleep() tets by me, delete (never worked as expected)
vivodump.c - like movinfo.c, if we have no problem .viv(o) files, delete,
   otherwise keep it
w32codec_dl.pl - does it work?
wma2ogg.pl - huh
x2mpsub.sh - rotfl
