Dear fellow mplayer users,

On my computer, a quad core, I get the following:

**** Your system is too SLOW to play this!  ****

I am running Fedora 10, and cpu and memory are not a problem

Possible reasons, problems, workarounds:
- Most common: broken/buggy _audio_ driver
  - Try -ao sdl or use the OSS emulation of ALSA.
  - Experiment with different values for -autosync, 30 is a good start.
- Slow video output
  - Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
- Slow CPU
  - Don't try to play a big DVD/DivX on a slow CPU! Try some of the lavdopts,
    e.g. -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts lowres=1:fast:skiploopfilter=all.
- Broken file
  - Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0.
- Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc)
  - Try -cache 8192.
- Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file?
  - Try -nocache.
Read DOCS/HTML/en/video.html for tuning/speedup tips.
If none of this helps you, read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html.

I have played around with several options -vo sdl which at least gives me the full screen using 'c' and 'f' keys respectively.  I have also tried xine and it gives me the error that the system is too slow to play the movie :(.  On other machines, I have encountered the error before, but I have by passed it by using -framedrop and using other options in xorg.conf.  Is there anything I can do to make this work better, or is it that the nvidia card is not well supported?

 nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400 GS

Normally the nv driver has worked well for me and it has been a while since I have not used the nvidia drivers.  

Thanks,

Antonio
