[MPlayer-users] Too many video packets in the buffer

[Ulrich Schweitzer]

Hi!

I'm trying to encode from .vob to .avi with the command line

mencoder $VPATH/*.vob -of avi -noodml -noskip -aid $AUDIOID -oac copy 
-audio-density 25 -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=mpeg4:mbd=2:trell:qpel:v4mv:cmp=3:subcmp=3:vpass=1:vbitrate=$BITRATE 
-vf  crop=$CROP,scale=$SCALE,harddup -sws 2 -o /dev/null

(all the variables are set to sane values). This works for exactly 18.5 
(movie)seconds, then I get several error messages per second. Playing the 
.vob with mplayer works fine. The beginning of the mencoder output is:

...and so on.
The same happens when I try to encode to mpeg1 with completely different 
options. Both command lines are testet dozens of times and never failed 
before.
The errors occur both on pre5 and todays CVS.
Does anybody know what's going on?
