As I found libSDL provides support for GL.
(Even more - looking at vo_gl(2) implementation I found out that they don't support
YUV textures which are supported by many modern cards)
In general - it would be far enough to keep -vo sdl only to have every video driver
which currently is implemented in mplayer(xp)
(except vesa and vidix but include -vo sdl:aa -vo sdl:directfb and -ao sdl:alsa)
Only thing why we need to keep direct support of unaccelerated surfaces is fact
that our scaler is faster than sdl's. What about accelerated surfaces - there is no
difference in speed between -vo xv and -vo sdl:xv for example.
I hope that in the future it would be possible to replace multiple vcs_read_OSNAME
with SDL too (and maybe even DVD*)
