Hi,

I've just encoded a DVD to x264 using MEncoder (latest build by Celtic 
Druid, build for AthlonXP, CVS-060323). So far everything worked fine. 
BUT: I've got some problems on playing that file! When I play the file 
in MPlayer there are some strange artifacts. The following screenshot 
shows the problem. Maybe on the screenshot it's not as clear as you see 
in "real" playback, but there are some big blocks that should not be 
there! And parts of the image seems to be shiftet! Howere only a few 
frames seem to be affected. Let's say a few frames every 20 seconds...

Look for the blocks in the hair:

Look at the border of the hat:

If I play the same file in Media Player Classic with CoreAVCDecoder 
everything works 100% fine and there are no artifacts at all. Same for 
searching for broken frames in VirtualDub via ffdshow-decoder: There are 
none! But again: If I play the file in MPlayer there are those artifacts 
and thats extremely nasty

Any ideas? Thanks....
