hi nico and juri!

i'm aware of the reencoding but i thought that should not be a
problem with a brand-new P4 2,8Ghz. 'top' tells me that mplayer
consumes 15 to 20% CPU-time - the CPU is 80% idle most of the
time.
at first i thought the bmovl-filter causes the slowdown, but
it doen't matter which filter i use.

i attached some verbose output (MPEG2 PAL video) that shows that mplayer
tries to arrange a working filter-chain. from the output it seems that
the filter should not work, but i see the overlay from bmovl.

thanks

The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec.
Try adding the scale filter, e.g. -vf spp,scale instead of -vf spp.
