Increasing video buffer

[Andreas Rödig]

Hi Mike,

thanks for your answer.

My Problem is: Reading from harddisk and decoding are fast enough (atom 
d525 and ion2 via vdpau). But sometimes i have some little harddisk 
actions. And only at this time i see the video bucking.

Thats why i think that a read buffer is good for me.

Thanks,
Andreas
