But it's dangerous, and you shouldn't do that. In this case given driver will
be forced and result is unpredictable (it may <b>freeze</b> your

+<P>This is a display-driver (<CODE>-vo zr</CODE>) for a number of MJPEG
+capture/playback cards (tested for DC10+ and buz, and it should work for the
+LML33, the DC10). The driver works by encoding the frame to jpeg and then
+sending it to the card. For the jpeg encoding <B>libavcodec</B> is
+used, and required.</P>
+
+<P>This driver talks to the kernel driver available at
+<A HREF="http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net">http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net</A>, so
+you must get it working first. Then recompile <B>MPlayer</B> with
+<CODE>--enable-zr</CODE>.</P>

+<P>Some remarks:
+<UL>
+ <LI>don't use xawtv on the same device <B>MPlayer</B> uses, it will crash

+ <LI>this driver adds <CODE>-zr*</CODE> commandline options. The explanation
+ of these options can be viewed with <CODE>-zrhelp</CODE>. It is possible to
+ crop the input frame (cut borders to make it fit or to enhance performace)
+ and to do other things.</LI>
+ <LI>the driver only takes data in YV12 format (libmpeg2, libavcodec for
+ example).</LI>
