    Hi, Michael Niedermayer!

All mpeg files I have do have BBIBBP sequence right as noticed in MPEG
ISO draft. May be you are right, but anyway windows media player get
crazy from it. :)

>> IBBPBBPBBPBB... sequence, BTW). When I tried -lavcopts vmax_b_frames=2

Unfortunately.

    With best wishes.
