I'll put my elite3d-lite card back in and try these options. In the past I tried the mplayer gl output options with little success. The only reason I pulled the card out was to see how well the on-board PGX64 worked with XINE using Robin's output plugin. Once I did that I could play fullscreen MPEG2 files but I find XINE to be crash prone and the GUI isn't responsive. I couldn't get gxine 3.3 to work due a known bug and I could get a DVD to play at all - libxine would die after a few seconds of play.
