[MPlayer-users] mplayer error: Error while decoding frame!

Hi,

Now, we solved the problem by repeating to send the first frame for 5 or 6 times 
and then continue sending the successive frames. And, now mplayer can play streaming normally.

But, we still don't know why Mplayer lose the first 4~5 frames.
By Ethereal, we look that, at first, our RTSP server sends frames to a specific port at destination 
that Mplayer place, but Mplayer doesn't use the port. 
After a while, Mplayer does use the specific port.
I am not sure the is the reason to result in data loss in MPlayer.
