i think Cin* only used xv (colorspace conversion + scaling), because unlike player it need to manipulate pixels in generic case, and you can't do it easily in half-decompressed stream (also xvmc was limited to mpeg1/2, with some non-standard extension for acceleratinf from vld stage - from my memory only openchrome driver ever supported this...) 

thanks for heads up!

I wonder if it has something to do with CinGG's X11-XV driver.
