[MPlayer-users] how to trace the memory leak?

[Michal Seliga]

I think that my version of mplayer (0.90pre4) eats too much memory. 

I played CD with 18 movies (nu pogodi) with mplayer -fs *.avi and I used -> and <- 
keys very much because I have seen most of them so I rewinded to the 'interesting' 
parts only.

After 12-13th movie my computer starteded to swap as hell, few dock application in 
my window maker were killed but mplayer kept running. maybe for minute... and then 
died with single message 'killed'. After then computer worked normally, so it had to 
be mplayer who started this. I have 256MB RAM + 16MB swap (I found free space 
on the disk...)

I know it will not help you very much so I ask what should I do to report this problem 
so you could repair it? ;-)

basic info is attached, movies were DIVX + mp3 soundtrack, used avcodec as codec 
, used SDL for output.

commandline: mplayer -fs *.avi

in configfile I have vop=pp=100 , autoq=100, vo=sdl

Any ideas?
