Not strange at all, actually mplayer can use OpenGL. # mplayer -vo gl I think mplayer will go through available output drivers till it finds one available. So in some cases opengl output may occur.

I found nouveau pretty functional for 2D without any problems in F11-64 on my Geforce 5200. -- Mauriat Miranda http://www.mjmwired.net/linux -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
