My CPU is a dual-core AMD 3.1Ghz.

With VDPAU (in Xinerama, working only with the new 256.x-drivers) I still have 60% CPU load for mplayer, but 0 for X, also without problems. I don't use VDPAU in regular use, since I'd have to set the environment variables each time accordingly to the xineramascreen I use, so I don't bother at all. Maybe when (sometime) mplayer can play BDs directly from disc, I'll have more input on this. Currently, with only two BDs in my collection there's only so much data I can gather, and I don't see the point spending half an hour (or more?) for dumping BDs to HD, when it should be possible to play it directly from disc... -- Cheers, Alex
