[MPlayer-users] two things

[Matthew Bettencourt]

First, there is a bug in mplayer in the latest cvs version.  If you 
compile without the USE_LIVAVCODEC define set you get an undefined 
symbol.  Here is a simple patch.

[freevo at localhost libmpcodecs]$ cvs diff -c vf.c

       NULL
   };

Now, for my question.  When I am trying to encode a movie I get a lot of

Pos:   3.1s     81f ( 0%)  43fps Trem:  15min   1mb  A-V:0.024 [0:0]
Too many video packets in the buffer: (4096 in 8270741 bytes).
Maybe you are playing a non-interleaved stream/file or the codec failed?
For AVI files, try to force non-interleaved mode with the -ni option.

error messages and the audio is trashed.  I can encode the video just 
fine, it is only the audio that is messed up.  I have looked around and 
I don't seem to find anything that helps this out.   I am using the 
3-pass encoding as in the docs.  Here is the command I am using.  I have 
tried the -ni flag w/o luck. Any ideas?
Thanks
Matt
