THIS IS FOR DEVEL, not really user but many people may have interest on it :


make some change on my code :
i used to do :

g_spawn_async_with_pipes( NULL, argv, NULL, G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH,
NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, &s_out, NULL, NULL );

read_channel = g_io_channel_unix_new( s_out );
g_io_channel_set_flags( read_channel, G_IO_FLAG_NONBLOCK | 
G_IO_FLAG_APPEND, NULL );

frameno_timer_id = gtk_timeout_add( 500, 
(GtkFunction)lm_encoder_parser_frameno_callback, NULL );	


Work fine with mplayer, not with mencoder... don't ask me why, had the 
same error with cdrecord output.

replace the g_io_channel with a "classic" select/read loop/fill buffer 
into the timer loop and everything go fine.

if you need further info, mail me.
