Yeah... almost.

Except it doesn't work that I can tell with the DivX codecs like it says
it does.  It says it sees it when you run ./configure, it says that
it'll use it, but it doesn't.  It refuses to use the DivX codec and
switches to MPEG1, which, well, doesn't work with DivX.

*shrugs*

Mind, it's the only format that I've come across thus far that it
doesn't play... but it's highly agitating.
