mplayer

I have ubuntu x64 13.04 with kde 4.11 and smplayer v0.8.6 and the last mplayer version from ppa.

I have ATI video card HD6870 MSI with fglrx driver v13.4.

My kde settings are:

Composition mode: Opengl 3.1
graphic system qt: Raster
scaling mode: precise
Vsync: auto

So what's the best configuration for quality over performace in smplayer according to my system specs?

For example what do I have to set for the following options?

enable postprocessing by default and postprocessing quality
output driver
Deinterlacing method
software equalizer
direct rendering
double buffering
draw video using slices
threads for decoding (MPEG-1/2 and H.264 only
loop filter
use CoreAVC

Thanks
