b frame files are binary identical too (ignoring an initial black? frame
xvid outputs) if -noslices is used, so i would guess there might be a
problem with slices + vo md5sum

PS: b frame file generated by ffmpeg with 2 bframes and 4mv, if anyone has
a non broken file which decodes binary differently with lavc & xvid (assuming
xvid idct, bitexact mode, w&h %16 == 0 and such) then iam interrested in
seeing it
