By default those features are automatically enabled if available. The
--enable switches override autodetection, _and_ also disable automatic
setting of any required compiler/linker flags. So for most features you
should let the automatic detection do its job.

I'm pretty sure he was thinking of another limitation of the svn vo
driver: it can't advance frames faster than display refresh rate.
However your problem description didn't match the expected symptoms and
he also missed that your log output already showed 50 Hz (so basically
he was on the wrong track and it's not relevant to any of the actual
issues).
