Hi Mike,

Layer mode doesn't work well. There might be some room for  
optimization or work around, however it has some severe limitation on  
leopard, such as being rendered on the main thread when using public  
api.

To turn it on you may want to force the openglvideolayer vout in  
VLCLibrary.m.
