With this sample, I never see framedrops with vo vdpau, vo xv and vo gl (with or
without yuv=2). CPU usage is very low (>80% idle, except for gl:yuv=0). The
status line reports 0% vo usage with gl:yuv=2, 5% for xv and below 20 for vdpau
(note that these numbers are never exact, but iirc, it showed 70% for you, which
is a problem imo).

With vc ffmpeg12vdpau, CPU usage is around 2%.
A/V sync is fine in all cases, it does not matter (much) if I use -ac a52 or -ac
ffac3.

To test that you do not have an alsa issue, try:
time mplayer KTXLtest_1225_for_5_1280x720_60hz_ts.mpeg2 -nosound -benchmark
It finishes after 20sec for the usual vo's for me (with your 30 sec sample). If
it does not take longer for you, try other ao's.

You could also test -lavdopts fast:threads=2 or even -lavdopts
fast:threads=2:skipidct=all (degrades quality, see manual)

If you suspect something is wrong with your setup (or do all/some on board
NVIDIA video cards have similar problems?) - consider a report at
