[MPlayer-users] XVID over 2gb

[MacNean C. Tyrrell]

Ok so my last xvid file created with virtualdub was over 2 gb and 
mplayer fails to play it on linux but plays fine on windows using 
mplayer.  It gets to the ODML part and seg faults.  If I use the old 
mencoder it will encode a new avi file fine, but the avi file created 
isn't very nice looking, artifacts galour.  If i use the new mencoder it 
segfaults at the AVI: ODML: Building odml index (2 wupder- indexchunks) 
same place as mplayer.  So what can I do here?  Right now i'm just 
reencoding the xvid file with SimpleDivx and using a lower bitrate 
(didn't want to do that but oh well) but how come this file plays fine 
in windows under media player or mplayer or anything that can play xvid 
but on linux it has such a problem?  Besides my aspect problem this is 
my first real problem with mplayer at all.  Has played my dvd's fine, 
all my xvid files but they are all less than 2gb.  Any ideas?
