 Hi everyone.
 I'm using mplayer for another purpos, I take snapshots from live video
streams.
 The things works like this.
 I make a small file (about 1Mb) with mpeg data, from the stream.
 And then I run mplayer on it, with save to png, and only to devode the
first 5 frames.
 The first fram usualy dosent look good, but the fifth always look good.
 I then just convert this into jpg. And, I have a still image.
 But, this is done in a automatic way. And I'm starting to suspect that
mplayer leave a memory cunck behind.
 After 10 days, and 3600 snapshots, it look like I have lost 280Mb of
memory, some 68K per run.
 The last 5 days now, I removed the snapshot script, and no memory have been
lost..
 Has enyone else seen this?
/Johan
