Postprocessing options in mplayer.conf

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am trying to specify post processing parameters in mplayer.conf, but none
of the options seem to have any affect.  For instance, if I add the line:

vf=pp=fd 

to enable ffmpegdeint (ffmpeg deinterlacer), there is no change to the video.

I have also tried as another example:

vf=pp=al

To set autolevels (brightness/contrast), and they too have no affect.

Hopefully I am doing this correctly, I have read the documentation.

Thank you.

You might be disrupting the chain, try vf-add.

That was it, thank you.  I had looked all over and spent a lot of time and 
couldn't
figure this out.

I ended up using:

vf-add=pp=fd

and it's clearly deinterlacing now as it should.  The playback is a little 
choppy
though because of this, but nevertheless the filter is being applied now.

Does the al switch work if you watch it on your TV. I'm gussing most newer TV 
has that "Black Stretch" feature that makes black well black. 

And if so what is the line to add. vf-add=pp=al:f

I googled al:f. But I'm just wondering if it will make any difference.
