[MPlayer-users] Mencoder and Akaï DV-PX7000E player.

[michael.aubertin at free.fr]

Hi all,

I bought an Akaï DV-PX7000E player, but when i read a divx, i have video whitout
sound.To build my divx, i have created this scripts. In GPL of course.

The generated divx are correct and can be play fine whit mplayer. Unfortunally,
when i try on my Akaï player, i just have video stream and no sound. Sometimes,
when pause/play/pause/play the sound appears and stay.

I have tryed many options. Whith those (cbr,vhq...) i have all time video and
sound on short avi file (shorter than 10Min). But, with complete film, Akaï
start the same fight and that's become a riot between it and me....lol.


Please, help me before one of our become injured....

TKS.
Mike

PS: If anybody work on a new firmware project (Linux ARM) for this player, i am
intersting.
