Mplayer is at the top when the video is played directly and in both modes you provided( -vo xv and -vo gl) , just like with vlc. Mplayer -vo xv is a lot better quality than mplayer -vo gl though; probably the best it's performed so far.
Also as previously stated-- the issue occurs with every media player, youtube videos (html5 and flash). Any HD video on youtube is really bad quality in HD (especially 1080p) but in Mac OSX all players run with exceptional quality and without lag in all videos. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1103236 Title: Choppy and pixelated video on Macbook Air 5,1.
