Can you upload a segment of the file that exhibits the problem to
/MPlayer/incoming ?

By default, and with any nonzero value for -mc, MPlayer adjusts a/v sync
using the flags in the file.  On occasion, they are wrong, and -mc 0
will play the file properly.  With different file types, and with
different -ao methods, larger or smaller -mc values may allow it to
reach sync more quickly, or not desync as much in the first place.
