  No... I found the problem: the files are non-interleaved AVI - which 
causes the problem... But actually I would expect that cache option 
should fix this, am I right? (and as I said using cache with this small 
value takes too much time to fill the cache and later it doesn't play 
anything...)

Thanks,
