[MPlayer-users] NOVIRUS Jerky playback of some avi files

[Conlef Ruine]

Hi All.
I've done some more experiments and I think the problem is sound related.
I installed the latest version of xine and there the video is ok but the 
sound is jumpy:
pause every second or so.

Then I tried mplayer with the  -nosound   option  and the video playback is 
smooth!
Any ideas what I might try updating?
I haven't noticed any other sound related problems.

Thanks

Conleth
