[MPlayer-users] Problem mencoding/mplaying ASF video

[Vincent Haverlant]

Hi all,

I have a DV camera which generates supposedly ISO MPEG-4 encoded ASF
files. My problem i that I can't read or decode them with
mplayer/mencoder. 

If needs be I confirm that the file can be played with windows media or
BSplayer.

The file is here: http://vhaverlant.free.fr/Vdo00010.asf

Here is the output:

Questions: 
- what can I do to help debug this ?
- what do you think might be the problem ?
- Is there something I could ask the cameræ manufacturer ?

Regards,
Vincent.
