Yes, it was encoded with a hardware encoder.



Here is the output of mplayer -identify:

This is a pretty busy morning at work, so I can't look at it much, but
the
basic problem here is mkmovie's inability to get a framecount.  Since it
doesn't know what the last frame is, the include list is wrong.

It doesn't look like an mpeg file, but let me be sure - are you using a
hardware encoder card?  If so, you'll need a mkmovie patch that has yet
to
be included in the distribution.

Run "mplayer -identify" on the file.  Post or offline me the output and
I'll
try to help.
