[MPlayer-users] Video plays too fast (but plays).. sound okay . HELP!

[Green, Shaun]

I played the quicktime video below using the latest MPlayer release pre9.
The sound was fine, but the video was diagonally distorted and kind of
rainbow colored B&W. Probably because I don't have quicktime installed in
Mandrake 9. However it played on sync.

[Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
Help me out here guys.

I played a nice little anti-MS video (QuickTime, 6MB, uses some sort of
Cinepak codec) on mplayer, which I compiled on a pretty fresh install of
Debian 3.0 (Potato) for x86. Xanim is installed, along with its libs,
and I believe my copy of mplayer includes support for them (I seem to
remember it finding them at compile time).

I ran ./configure with no options, so all the defaults were accepted.

When I played this video, the sound came out perfect-- not too fast or  
too slow-- but the VIDEO ran quite a bit faster than usual. When the    
video ended (prematurely), mplayer stopped and returned a prompt. (No   
error.. it just thought the end of the video meant it was time to close 
up shop.) The sound did not finish.

I have put the exact video file as well as a copy of my mplayer binary  
AND a copy of the exact output of mplayer when I ran it up... all up on 
the Web.

Also, I've uploaded a copy of "ldd /usr/local/bin/mplayer".

Could someone tell me what I did wrong? (I feel terribly stupid) Or is
this a bug?
