It's only this SVCD created from the mpeg2 stream in the mpeg1 container 
that MPlayer doesn't like so much.

The Vcdimager docs contains the following warning:

"Warning: Padding the MPEG streams causes the bit-rate at which the data 
is read to be increased, this may lead to undesirable effects"

Maybe this is why MPlayer has a bit problems?

Anyway, MPlayer really plays almost about anything. If I create SVCD's 
in the right way, it plays them fine as well.
