[Mplayer-users] bad sequence header!

[SteveC]

I've made some mpegs with the *standard* berkeley tools. Those made out of
jpegs will play on mplayer, but sometimes segfault mpeg_encode. If I make
them out of pnm's (ImageMagick convert) then mpeg_encode is ok but mplayer
dies (see below). smpeg/xanim etc will play the pnm made mpegs fine
though.
