Bug Description
Binary package hint: mplayer
Since we're aiming for Compiz-by-default in Gutsy, we might as well apply the patch from the compiz mailing list which makes mplayer's XV video output use Compiz's "video" plugin when available.
Advantages are: 1) It should be faster than XV
2) It should fix some video output problems with the mplayer+compiz combination.
I've pushed a bzr branch with the patch applied to

its a quite big patch, and I'm not confident in having it included into ubuntu without references who did the patch, and what's upstream's opinion on this.
