[MPlayer-users] Significant audio delay on an avi file with blank audio

[Sébastien Mazy]

Hi!


I have an avi file which seems to have "blank audio" during its first 14
seconds. However, mplayer plays immediately the audio. The problem can only be
reproduced if you do not seek the stream (with -ss or a keyboard shortcut).

1)
mplayer blank_audio.avi
=> the sound starts to play immediately and thus audio and video aren't
synchronized, there is no sound during the last 14 seconds of the video file.

2)
mplayer -ss 14 blank_audio.avi
=> sound and video are now synchronized as expected


The video file :
ftp://upload.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/blank_audio_delay.avi
The output log of 1) :
ftp://upload.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/blank_audio_delay.txt


Cheers,
