Certainly it is, but its sound card supporting code is too Mpxplay oriented and not so original. If I would have the time, I would write a wrapper for ALSA's or OSS' drivers (which are easily made usable for DOS), but I don't. I like WSS and it can be extended to support new cards without too much effort.

Try to use it with "-vsync" to see if it helps. VESA video output is generally awful IMO (before anything else it is very slow), but it can't be improved, this is all that you can get with VESA. As you know, it doesn't support hardware scaling or color space conversion.
