Is this really what you want to say? It contradicts a previous mail of
yours where you suggest _not_ to combine -N and -K kvcd. I am going to
read "Usually a good idea" as "Probably not a good idea". Right? :-)

Sure, but on a stupid TV set, resolution seems less of an issue.

I can send a screenshot. Maybe it's a mplayer bug, since it doesn't show
when playing it with the DVD player...

But it _is_ faster than mjpegtools, right? In that case, is quality the
penalty? Or player compatibility?

Yes I did notice and envy ;-)

Okay, that answers my previous question. I will try with my player. I do
prefer to create compatible cd's though. Guess mjpegtools is the way to go
then.

I will try it too. Thanks again for your extensive reply.
