i guess, though dont know, that 75% worked after random trying ;)

besides as iam already here, could someone summarize what the PAFF
issue in mplayer was exactly in fine technical detail.
Iam asking because i remember it only halfway ATM and maybe we could
find some solution if we spell out and read what exactly is the problem

from lavf side, h264 timestamps still are not always guranteed to
be correct, i had no luck convincing people to implement all cases
of the spec ... but thats not PAFF specific ...
