[MPlayer-users] Mplayer crashes when changing frame size during stream playback

[Ricardo Oliveira]

Hi all,

I'm using ffserver to stream a mpg4 video to a client using mplayer.
At some point the frame size of the video stream 
changes(new_height=old_height/2 and new_width=old_width/2).
But for some reason mplayer can't handle this frame size change and 
crashes. The video is being decoded by ffmpeg libavcodec.
Is this supposed to happen?

Here's a short output from mplayer(please find more details in the file 
attached):
