   It means that your X display doesn't support the new XFree4 XVideo
extension. You can use "-V x11" to use plain X11 rendering instead.
Also, if you are still in 8bpp, you will probably need to add "-yuv yuv"
because there is no MMX 8bpp dithering yet but the plugin manager is a
bit dumb and will try to open the MMX plugin anyway.
