I think scaling seems to be the problem
Store this @ your ufoai install under base next to 0vids.pk3
1vids.pk3run the game open console and type
cinematic small.ogm (play "smothy" [except sometimes scraping noise {like an old platter}])
cinematic big.ogm (slideshow [45% cpu time on a dual core])
cinematic xxl.ogm (no way)
activate options->video->show fps:
I've converted an older avi file using VLC
the small one was scaled down to 0.25
xxl scaled up to 2
vlc play the movie (intro.ogm) smoothy
and btw it looks a lot better and consume much less cpu time
But vlc is using directX
using opengl as output vlc consumes 3 times more cpu time
But still much less than ufo.exe
