[MPlayer-users] ffmpeg problem

[gabor farkas]

well, it looks like the best would be to forget about it :-))

i've just checked an other file with the same ffmpeg problem,
and in that case -vc divxds didn't help either...

so it looks like the files are simply broken and in some rare cases
divxds comes out better with that, sometimes not.. as you said :-)))

but that means i'll have to find an other version of that file :-(

anyway thanks for your help,

gabor
