--------------------------------+-------------------------
 The playback OSD on Raspberry Pi has some problems:

  1. Can cause the video to become choppy due to high CPU utilization.
  2. On standard definition channels or videos the OSD is low-definition.

 Fix this by using OpenGL to display the OSD over the video instead of
 merging the OSD into the frames. Leave the software merge available as an
 alternative in case of problems with OpenGL support.
