It's a known problem, already fixed in cvs. Please upgrade (at least  
demux_real.c)

No, that's the problem :)


If you can't upgrade remove this code from demuxer.c (from line 1198)

                   if ((version != 3) && (hdr_size != 0x4e)) {

                             mp_msg(MSGT_DEMUX,MSGL_V,"skipping %d  
extra header bytes\n", hdr_size-0x4e);
                             stream_skip(demuxer->stream, hdr_size- 
0x4e);
                     }
