Well, VLC does play it fine, so it may be related to hardware-based 
player which are obviously a bit more limited and perhaps strict.

If you can give any further hints on doing the bisect, I'm happy to 
spend a few hours on it.

What about the configure line - should I enable debugging to get more 
information?

What I need to do is set up two new folders from git - one for the 
version I know works and another for a version 2 weeks in advance (as I 
believe that's roughly the time-frame when it broke) - I don't know how 
to do that. I can then do bisect on that and see what I can come up 
with. I've got a reproducible environment here, so it may be easier for 
me after all.

Thanks,
