Comment(by jon.nettleton):

 After running a few tests last night I noticed that no matter what the
 frame rate was set to, the hardware was always generating 50 interrupts
 per second.  This also corresponds to the math of the number of frames I
 was seeing processed by mplayer.  Actually I was seeing double this
 number, and half the frames were being dropped due to jitter or timestamp
 problems.

 My suspicion is that the 50 interrupts/sec is being dictated by the
 vrefresh of the framebuffer, although I have not yet figured out a good
 way to test this theory.
