The description in the man page is a bit confusing:

 It has three
 values 'auto'(-1), 'off'(0) and 'auto'(1). 'off' means never sync, 'on' means
 always sync, no matter what size, and 'auto' means sync if the Xv image is
 more than quarter of the pixels on the screen. The default is 'auto'(-1).

I guess it should say 'on'(1)?

As for tearing, it doesn't seem to be fixed on my G45.

The default value of XV_SYNC_TO_VBLANK seems to be 1. Even if I manually set -1 or 0, it's set back to 1 after using MPlayer.
