[MPlayer-dev-eng] Patch for mencoder, 7% speed increase

[wander]

Hello,

First of all I'd like to apoligise for the last posts I made here, the
anwser was in the manual, I should have looked better.

I made a patch for mencoder so that it prints info like this:

Pos:  37.1s   1113f ( 2%) 178fps Trem:   4min 170mb  A-V:0.031 [655:224]

only once every second, because printing this info 178 times a second
takes up quite a bit of processing power and our pathetic human eyes can't
handle that anyway.

This lead to a 7% increase in speed on my system.

I thought about using GetTimer(), but I think the method I use now is more
efficient, and the time between every update is allowed to fluctuate a
bit.

This patch doesn't touch the code for verbose printing btw, so if you want
the old behaviour, you could turn on verbose mode.

I hope you guys find this patch usefull,

Wander
