 6. If you have speed problems (too slow playing), then please first check that:
-   - you don't use OpenGL driver while have software-only opengl (DRI disabled,

    - you have set up MTRR registers properly (many new cards are really
      slow without setting up MTRR registers. it's NOT done by X 3.3.x! Also,
      there are older K6-2's, which lack MTRR support /stepping=0/).

    - try with Null output (-vo null) and check CPU usage (first % value)

    - to play AVI files with VBR MP3 audio use the  -mc 0  option!
    - no sound at all: check that you have working OSS driver (/dev/dsp),
      and it isn't used by another program (for example esd, xmms etc.)

 8. unsupported codecs (AVI files):
-   We may add support for your movie, but we need the following things:
-   - the codec DLL file: find it in your WINDOWS directory. In the SYSTEM.INI
-     there will be a listing of the installed codecs (vids.<codecname>=DLLfile)
-   - a sample file encoded with that codec.
+   Check DOCS/CODECS
