I've finally finished about another hour of testing.
And I'm satisfied with the results. I've tried different combinations of options but I've always found a certain combination that resulted in the fastest mplayer.
I'm still split over the mfpmath= issue but I've decided to go with mfpmath=sse since it seems to provide a more constant result only .2 seconds slower or faster in most cases, so either way it doesn't really matter which one I use.
I'm really tired of this whole mplayer thing right about now :p. But I think I quite thoroughly tested it for speed and I don't think quality or stability was sacrificed in any way, shape, or forum.
I present the latest and greatest:
Fast Mplayer FINAL v1
This is the version that should be integrated into the svn IMO, I guess that the final decision would be up to the developers.
I've included the codecs.conf in case your using a really old build, the mplayer.dll (duh!) and the config.mak file I used with the parameters all zipped up nicely in a 7z. file.
You only need to cop the mplayer.dll and the codecs.conf to system/players/mplayer and overwrite the old ones. The codecs.conf file only really makes a difference if you using a really old build.
Someone should put this in the OP (and yes, I guess I'm still complaining about not editing posts :mad:
)
Thanks.
I'm gonna take a nice vacation from testing this sh!t since I'm tired of it right about now. Basically 3 days straight of doing nothing but testing player, thinking about mplayer, and compiling mplayer.
Now I guess I can reap the rewards and watch something for once.
Enjoy
