[MPlayer-users] problem with a divx 5.0.1 pro encoded with seeking and framedropping

[Rik Snel]

Hello,

The file is skipswrongframesinhurryup.avi in incoming.

If I play this file with -framedrop, the image becomes distorted as if P
frames are being skipped. The results don't seem to depend on the vo driver.
Seeking doesn't seek to a keyframe. (older mplayer eg. 020427 works fine)

Below are te notes of the encoder. 

Please let me know if you can't reproduce.

Rik.
