mplayer-cacheprefill_option.patch
Alters example.conf to show usage.
I also increased the maximum cache size to 256M from 64M.
The default is for the prefill value to be a percentage (20% initial / 5% on
restart) of the cache size, but when you increase to larger caches for better
network streaming, the fill time increases proportionally... and at 256M the
20% becomes unreasonable.
ferringb: I tested it over here, works ok on my side as well. Sent it upstream too. Created attachment 34695 [details, diff]
updated patch
options use - instead of _
max is now 99 to fix bug with 100

updated to fix an mplayer cache fill bug also
Alright, I've worked with the upstream devs, and this adds the feature as well
as fixes the predicate on the initial fill... they should be having it in the
next release, so feel free to mark this UPSTREAM if you're too busy to add it
in

some runtime optimizations
forgot to attach the final patch... this is the one I finally worked out with
upstream input... has some optimizations over the previous one...
