I combined this with an audio stream using mplex. I think you use some very uncommon options. And many player cannot handel that stream. > I find that RealOne works if I use the -f 1 option with mplex, but > that causes the resulting file to shoot from 3.8 MB to about 8 MB. If you use -f 2 and -V, you shoud get again the correct filesize. When you use -f 1 mpeg2enc thinks you have a CBR (Constant bitrate stream) and that causes the problem.

Lookes like the player is having troubles playing back mpeg1 files, like the MS Media player Try a other player lie xine, mplayer and vlc are players (more can be found in the interoperability section of the mjpeg-howto) that work very reliabel. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Scholarships for Techies!
