yes, it is.
The problem here is that mplayer decodes data as fast as it can
(ignoring the correlation between dts, pts and pcr), and sooner or later 
it will
starve for data, audio and video pts will diverge too much and you will 
have
an ugly still frame as "video stream".

I'm afraid that in order to fix this problem mplayer will have to be 
modified to
begin decoding only when the right "time" comes (pcr >= dts)
