Even if you are not using hardware overlay, you can see dramatic differences
in performance depending on the graphics card you've got.
Some graphics card don't handle hardware rescaling of frame buffers (my riva
TNT doesn't) and thus if the video is displayed at a different size than it
is decoded, all the resizing operation (with interpolation...) will be done
in software by the drivers (X or directX ...).
As you can guess, this resizing is very processor demanding.
So a good graphics card will always help.
