Well, I'm no expert, but for some reason mplayer thinks your AVI files
have broken indexes, hence it scans the entire file and builds it's own
temporary index. Was mplayer compiled with win32 AVI support?<br><br>
AFAIK, if you really do have broken indexes, you can use VDub (or VDubMod
for preference) to rebuild them.<br><br>
As an aside, I've had much better luck with the OGM container format,
which also has support for embedding subtitles and DVD chapter
information.<br><br>

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.</font><br>
