yeah,

'mencoder source.avi -oac copy -ovc copy -o fixed.avi -noodml'
fixed the problem, now the 1.34 GB file is playable in other players in win.

Now another problem,
i have another movie file which is about 3.4GB (directly ripped from
dvd with 'dvd://1 -oac copy -ovc copy'  option) which plays fine with
mplayer but mplayer cannot seek that file. while i try 2 seek the file
the movie window immediately closes, not 2 mention the non-playablity
of the file with other players.

I guess this is also an ODML related problem as mplayer outputs
"Creating new ODML RIFF chunck at 1023 mb" four times during the rip
process.

I cant use the -noodml option as the file is bigger that 2 GB
