Re: [xine-user] video_out_* probs

[John S. <jsw...@sj...>]

I'd just like to say that the job you variously do is magnificent. I have 
been a Xine user since version nos. in the 0.5 or something and really 
like showing it off to users of that abominable operating system.
I would say that version 0.9.10 doesn't work as nicely on my Dell laptop 
as 0.9.9 (the cvs version was better upto about a week ago, though): it 
jerks more. But hey, it's not a complaint, just an observation (I have an 
ATI Rage mobile on mine and I happily use the atitvout utility).
In Mexico, where I live, you would all be rightly classed as chingones.
