Ok, that's possible, even thought if my problem comes from there, I'd 
really feel stupid that I had bug people with that problem...
On the other hand, I don't really understand how come a months-old 
MPlayer-pre5 build plays my ogg/vorbis just fine (as if there's a buggy 
codecs.conf somewhere, -pre5 should also suffer from it, shouldn't it?).
That makes me pretty much "loose my Latin".

Out of my curiosity, could you tell me maybe if the builtin codecs.conf 
is the file "codecs.conf.h" generated during the build process (from the 
actual codecs.conf file)?

So many strange things for me... :-(

Guillaume
