[MPlayer-users] play mpeg4 stream in mov container

Now I've tried the cvs and the results is pretty the same, see forward.

Ok, I've attached the verbose output for the file 1GB long that
doesn't play correctly (as I said only distorted sound are played
without video).

I've tried with the cvs version:

  $ mplayer -demuxer lavf nani.mov
  $ mplayer -sb 1 nani.mov
  $ mplayer -demuxer lavf -sb 1nani.mov

and again I can't see any video.

To clarify (I realized my previous mail wasn't very clear, sorry for
my bad english), I recorded this file with vlc from a internet stream,
without audio or video re-encoding and choosing mov as container.
Recording a shorter file from the same source I obtain files that play
fine either with mplayer and with vlc. But I cant play this longer
(1GB) file, recoded with the same procedure.

Hope the problem is clearer now.

If you want further information just ask.

Cheers,
