This is not a problem, it is just an info message.
If you don't want to generate OpenDML avis, then you can disable it with
-noodml (CVS version).

That is actually a known bug with OpenDML avis and MPlayer-pre4.
It affects avis between 1GB and 2GB in size.
The bug is fixed in current CVS.

Of course, since it will generate an OpenDML index again, and the bug
will trigger on the new avi too.

So your Solution is to upgrade to current CVS.
