[MPlayer-users] -cache causes -ss inaccuracy bug

sometime between r21824 and r22229 a strange bug was introducted
that causes the usage of -cache to cause -ss to overshoot, often by 
minutes.  the inaccuracy appears to increase with higher values 
of -ss.

for example, "-nocache -ss 50:00" will start at 50:00, but "-cache 1024
-ss 50:00" will start at 52:30.  the value of cache specified does not
appear to matter.

on one dvd I have, -ss 53:00 will completely miss the title all
together even though its length is 1:09:00
