I think you're referring to the fieldorder filter ? This went into trunk
and compiles/installs but there seems to be no way to enable it via the
setup screens. I think it is also restricted to what renderers it will
work with and i don't think works with vdpau ? Some correct me if i'm
wrong ? I tried it a while ago but it gave me a error in the logs about
not working with vdpau.
