indeed is not a driver bug. wiht other drivers/arch/gpu's, it works the
same.
the real question is then: is it correct to let the xv window become
translucent, then the vieo not visible, or is it better off to tell
mplayer to fire up that xv attribute???
i can't test it with a lot of drivers/arch/gpu's to get to a point where
i could decide which is the 'correct' setting... friends of mine are
testing this, if i'll get some 'statistic' values, i'll tell....
thanx
