[MPlayer-users] number of yuv4mpeg frames does not match audio length.

[Maarten de Boer]

Investigating a bit more, I found that if I play the audio separately,
A/V sync is much better, so I guess the A/V sync problem comes from the
MP4Boxing... I'll take it to the gpac mailinglist.

$ mplayer -vo null -ao pcm result.mp4 
$ (aplay audiodump.wav &) ; mplayer -ao null result.mp4
