Subject: [MPlayer-users] Annoying new message from CVS mplayer


[Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
Earlier this morning, I noticed for the first time a message in mplayer 
output which hadn't been there before; it appears to occur numerous 
times (dozens/hundreds) over the course of playing any video in which it 
occurs at all.

L3: BigValues too large, doesn't make sense 416 384

The numbers given are the most common, but do vary.

I've tried a few different files, and have received this message only in 
comparatively high-quality AVIs; it does not appear to occur in .mpg 
files or low-quality AVIs, and I have yet to try any others.

I've tracked this down to mp3lib/layer3.c, where the message is printed 
in two different locations, both delimited by #ifdef L3_DEBUG #endif. 
Commenting out both of those blocks removes the message, without 
breaking the compile or appearing to affect functionality.

Near the beginning of the file, there are these three lines:

[... unimportant part deleted ...]
