I derived the configure options from how mplayer is configured in
FreeBSD ports; I believe SSE3 is disabled due to poor support in gcc
4.2.

In what way do those options not do what I expect? Do they not enable
dca, freetype, vdpau and v4l, and allow mencoder to encode to x264?

Can you clarify what speed has to do with this as well? With vo=xv,
the CPU has to do all decoding, and manages it just fine. I would have
thought even more capacity would be available when I offload all the
decoding.

Thanks
