That is the point where I am lost...
When I look at the playback options, I see to much to adjust and no idear what 
they cause...
In the v0.20 branch it was easy, but now I have options depending on 
resolution and others. So now I am lost in options :-)

I generated a new "test" profile, since the existing ones doesn't seem to 
change a thing.
I am currently try the options, but this will be a time consuming thing :-(

By the way did I have to restart the mythfrontend after each change ? I do not 
hope so.
