[MPlayer-users] Audio Lag and Index Problem

Ok, I finally found what had caused my problems. Even after the dvd audio lag 
bug had been fixed I still had a considerable delay playing mencoder 
generated avis. I could not figure out where that came from and thus resorted 
to using transcode with the -D switch or encoding with mencoder (cbr audio) 
and remuxing with avidemux (audio delay 500ms).

(I always encoded on-the-fly since I was running out of hd space -> ripping 
was not an option)

Just today by chance I played one of these files without using the arts sound 
driver (killall artsd, mplayer -ao alsa9) and guess what, the delay was gone. 
It also works fine when I set the audio buffer size to a very low value in 
the KDE Control Center.

So now I have a bunch of avi files that are slightly out of synch, but at 
least I can tell you that it was not an mencoder problem. I don't know if 
that should be considered a bug in the arts ao driver? Guess not.

Thanks for all your help and sorry for any confusion.
