#
# MPlayer configuration file
#
# Configuration files are read system-wide from 
/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf
# and per-user from ~/.mplayer/config, where per-user settings override
# system-wide settings, all of which are overrriden by the command line.
#
# The configuration file settings are the same as the command line
# options without the preceding '-'.
#
# See the CONFIGURATION FILES section in the man page
# for a detailed description of the syntax.
#
# Profiles should be placed at the bottom of the configuration file to 
ensure
# that settings wanted as defaults are not restricted to specific 
profiles.

I think the problem is the format of the AVI files - I have not used 
files transferred from the Archos AV700 device for a while and I have 
just tested old files from this device - _but_ which were edited using 
avidemux - and they seem to work fine - I will install avidemux again 
and test the idea.

Thanks,

Phil.
