Here's an attempt to re-word an unclear sentence which I stumbled
upon while reviewing Polish translation. Attached

Also there's a paragraph around line 2090 of video.xml which reads:
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-vf expand=-1:-1:-1:-1:1</option></term>
<listitem><para>
Although the DXR3 driver can put some OSD onto the MPEG1/2/4 video, it has
much lower quality than <application>MPlayer</application>'s traditional OSD,
and has several refresh problems as well. The command line above will firstly
convert the input video to MPEG4 (this is mandatory, sorry), then apply an
expand filter which won't expand anything (-1: default), but apply the normal
OSD onto the picture (that's what the "1" at the end does).
</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>

Does expand really convert input to MPEG4? I don't think so.

R.
