 // 1) Certain backends can't play the same media file at the same time (MCI,
 //    Cocoa NSMovieView-Quicktime).
 // 2) Positioning on Mac Carbon is messed up if put in a sub-control like a
-//    Notebook (like this sample does) on OS versions < 10.2.
-// 3) On unix the video may not work - it only checks for a few video
-//    sinks - xvimagesink, ximagesink and whatever gnome preferences has -
-//    if gnome preferences is not available or you have a different video
-//    sink then those two (such as sdlvideosink) then you'll get black video
+//    Notebook (like this sample does).
