I have used -march=native -mfpmath=sse and now movies do play well.
I'm still not sure why I had this problem.
I did use mmx and sse use flags, but did removed them.
Is it possible that my gcc didn't created good efficient binary before I
used recompiled world?
I really don't think so.
I didn't use -march=native, but did find what my gcc find as native
