[MPlayer-users] mplayer A/V sync ?bug?

[Arne Rusek]

Hi everyone,
I have used mplayer 0.11 for loooong time without any problems and now I 
was forced to upgrade to 0.50. It compiled OK, but playback is not as 
good. A/V sync is going out, video is much slover than audio so A/V 
value is sometimes as big as 30s (at the end of 2:30 music clip) and is 
constantly growing during playback. I tried -nobps -bps -framedrop (this 
stopped video, only first frame appeared and A/V sync was going out 
either). Then I read FAQ and tried -nosound, it worked, but without 
sound of course. Maybe buggy sound driver, but with mplayer 0.11 it was 
OK!?!?! Mplayer says that my computer is too slow to play this, but CPU 
time is 65% idle (MPlayer consumes around 30%) and as I said w/o sound 
video is OK. Is there any workaround? Please help. Thank You.

there is some info:
