Hi
it says:
> **** Your system is too SLOW to play this! ****
This tells exactly what the problem is. It even tells you what to try to fix it:
> - Slow video output
> - Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
I am assuming the problem is in the graphics card. If you have a heavy
CPU and a light graphics card you may find the solution in -vo X11.
If they are both slow the best solution may be -framedrop (if the
system is lagging with the video it skips a few frames and picks up
where it should have been, skipping only complete frames.
If -framedrop isn't enough you may want to try -hardframedrop. It's a
nasty one, for it doesn't bother with detecting the "borders" between
frames, so there will be some blocks and errors on your screen.
If you want to solve this better, but more difficult you could compile
Mplayer for your system. I have done this once (divx on a 166 P1 is
possible) but I could only do it because my mate helped me and he is
verry good at that shit.
Hope it helps
