CVS change done by Ivo van Poorten CVS Update of /cvsroot/mplayer/main/DOCS/man/en In directory mail:/var2/tmp/cvs-serv22536 Modified Files: mplayer.1 Log Message: Description of -af format was outdated. This updates it. Feel free to change spelling or phrasing :) Note: There's no official spelling of endianness. Personally I prefer a single n, but the majority seems to use double n. Since I'm not a native speaker, I used 'endianness' here.
