[MPlayer-users] [BUG] Bad FLV Playback. Duplicate frames.

[Brendan Schwartz]

Hello,

I'm having an issue with FLV playback. The video I'm trying to view has a
few seconds of static (no motion) scenes at the end. MPlayer speeds through
the video for these scenes, but the audio plays at the correct speed. This
video plays perfectly with other players. I think this problem has something
to do with the fact that the duplicate frames are not hard encoded into the
video (see flvtool2 debug output below).

I'm using the latest source (and also tried with several older versions). I
tried uploading the video (japan_orig.flv) to the MPlayer FTP's incoming
directory, but I'm not sure it made it because I can't seem to get a listing
for that directory. I can provide a URL for the video if it's not accessible
via the FTP.

Thanks!
Brendan
