my Zaurus SL-C3000 and SL-C3100
kino2 - [kino2_0.4.3c_arm.ipk]
bvdd - [bvdd_0.4.0-1_arm.ipk]

zplayer - [zplayer_0.1.0_arm.ipk]
The intel wireless media extension (iwmmxt) is a feature of the Xscale CPUs which improves
performance dramatically. It is utilised by the special iwmmxt edition of mplayer. It is faster than
the regular version without iwmmxt but you will need Tetsu's kernel installed to take advantage of
it since it needs some extra patches which the default Sharp kernel is missing but is included in
Tetsu's special kernel.
kino2 and zplayer are graphical frontends for the console based mplayer. You don't need them, but
they make things easier. You can use either of them with mplayer or none at all if you prefer to run
mplayer from command line.
If you want to resize the default video aspect or compress them, have a look further down in the
Video Conversion section.
In order to play videos fullscreen in kino2, you need to have the following settings set and enabled:
Video
Use PXA27X(bvdd) overlay (tick)
This will let you play videos with 320x240 resolution in full screen. However, if you have files
encoded with the standard PAL resolution of 352x288 then you need to have the following options
as well:
Video
Enable smart crop (tick)
Disable aspect ratio correction (untick)
You might also want to enable some of the other settings which may give you better performance.
See the Video Conversion section to see how you can re-encode your videos to make them smaller
but still give you reasonable playback quality.
