When played back by mplayer, it plays without any sound drop outs.  However, 
when it reaches the location where I would expect it, mplayer displays a 
message that your computer is to slow to play this file.  It displays the 
message regardless how I play the file or even when the video screen is 
reduced real small.  The current indicator zips along really fast when the 
screen size is reduced until hits the trouble spots.  This is on both my 
workstation PIII-1GHz with Slack 8.1 and my notebook PIII-1.2GHz with SuSE 
8.1.

Also, same problem on both the mpeg file and the VOB file.  So I have to 
figure that it is probably in the mpeg file to start with before dvdauthor 
processes it.

I would think it is a fairly current version.  I downloaded the slack packages 
that were available for Slackware 8.1.  They also offered 9.0 and 9.1 
packages.  I just downloaded it last night in trying to identify where the 
problem is.

I tried to play it on another (older) DVD player and it played the first 4 
minutes just fine.  Then it just stopped.  I built a P4/Win98SE system this 
morning and installed PowerDVD XP and it played the first ten minutes without 
any drop outs or stopping.  Of course under Windows no real way to see any 
error messages or other problems.

I maybe able to try updating from the CVS tonight and rebuilding late tonight.  
When I got the CVS built this time I had to go back and start over from the 
beginning.  It didn't like the files created from the 1.6.1 version.  But I 
shouldn't that problem this time.  I should be able to just multiplex it and 
reauthor it.

Side note, the problem with dvdauthor and xml2 error message was I had built 
it and installed for dvdauthor prior to mjpegtools.  But I forgot to set the 
--prefix on configuring libxml2.  So I had to locate and delete the old 
libxml2 libs.  It would be nice if the configure script could locate current 
installations and then configure for it unless directed otherwise.  Probably 
solve a lot of build and execute problems.

Thank you for your assistance once again,
James
