Ok, more information about this. The problem is that i'm unable to play
these files in Windows. WMP just plays the audio, The Playa and BS
Player crashes after a few frames. Is this intended?
Furthermore it seems that i'm unable to play these files using mplayer
on TVout using mga_vid, but it works using XV.
I can upload one of these files i somebody wants it.
