[MPlayer-users] DVR-MS sync issues on OS X

[Anton Enright]

Dear All,

I'm trying to play DVR-MS files recorded on windows MCE 2005 on a
Macintosh OS X 10.4 intel macbook pro using mplayer Version 1.0rc1.

Mplayer recognises them fine and starts playing, the problem is that
the video appears to be running about twice as fast (59.97fps instead of
29.97fps) as the audio. When examining the file info from the playlist in
the gui it shows:

File format: libavformat
Video format: DVR, 0.0 kbps, 0x0, 59.9 fps
Audio format: mp3, 192 kpps, 48.0 kHz, Stereo
Length 1:04:58

I've tried numerous options on the codec (libmpeg ffmpeg) -vo options,
-nosound and trying to set -fps manually but nothing seems to help much
except the -demuxer 35 option which corrects things somewhat but the audio
is still very much out of sync with the video.

I've also tried -autosync and -cache and -framedrop just in case.

Any help/advice appreciated.

Thanks,

Anto
