Sorry, don't know why the rest of my email was truncated.
Continuing....
The files play back fine locally in the FE.
I tried recompiling ffmpeg with all options, no change:
built on Dec 1 2009 15:37:42 with gcc 4.4.1
configuration: --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-nonfree
--enable-pthreads --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad

--enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid
--enable-x11grab --disable-vdpau
Mencoder reports the following on the files:
MEncoder SVN-r29973-4.3.4 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team

[mkv] Will play video track 1.
Matroska file format detected.
VIDEO: [avc1] 640x480 24bpp 29.970 fps 0.0 kbps ( 0.0 kbyte/s)
[V] filefmt:31 fourcc:0x31637661 size:640x480 fps:29.970 ftime:=0.0334
videocodec: framecopy (640x480 24bpp fourcc=31637661)
The files streamed fine in 0.21 (before Karmic, as well).
Any advice or troubleshooting steps?
Thanks!
Barry
