[MPlayer-dvb] mplayer hangs after a few movies

Tue Dec 28 17:43:56 CET 2004

hello

now i switched to unbuntu/debian-linux and still have the problem.
BUT i have to correct myself - mplayer also hangs with one file,
if i start it often enough (around 10 times). it has nothing to do
with the enqueuing of more files.

then i thought maybe the sound played over oss is the problem and
used '-ao mpegpes', but (as always) the same effect.

some more information:
card: technotrend (philips SAA7146 rev01)
firmware: dvb-ttpci-01.fw-261c
tv-format: pal

here an mplayer-output. after a few working files, this movie didn't start
