[mythtv-users] problem playing divx encoded videos with mplayer (slightly OT)

[Darren Richards]

I have encoded my entire dvd collection with the divx5 codec.  I have Mythvideo set to play my videos with mplayer, and most will play just fine.  But for a couple of the files, it takes mplayer over a minute before it actually starts playing the movie.  This is the last message displayed:

AVI file format detected.
AVI: ODML: Building odml index (2 superindexchunks)

If I wait a minute or so, the movie will start playing.  Both Xine and Windows Media Player will play it just fine.  Has anyone seen this before?  I'm using MPlayer 1.0pre4-3.3.2.

Thanks,
Darren
