I assume you have a good reason for not using X11 for video output. If it's a 
ThinkPad T42 then it strikes me as quite a beefy machine (a quick google 
suggests a Pentium-M at 1.7GHz or above) with quite capable ATI graphics 
hardware that would have plenty of headroom for playing video under X. 
(Certainly quite a bit more substantial than my X40's 1.2GHz P-M CPU and 
Intel 855GME graphics.)

If you used X11, you could probably use the Xv output driver which does 
hardware scaling and YUV->RGB conversion.

Just a suggestion...

Stephen
