He said: "Mplayer uses xv and hardware zooming works, too."
This is what I saw, too. Zooming does not have any impact on the CPU load.
I don't know if and how hardware accelleration and hardware zoom are

If the playing movies with "720x480 at 22% and 1280x720 at 30-50%" is 
not using hw acceleration on CX700 yet,
then I am really keen on seing that to come.
