Partly. The incompatibility's that have been reported all seem to correlate to DPME, not to presence/lack of B frames. So, it would seem that for best compatibility you'd want to turn off DPME, but you could still choose absence/presence of B frames without it effecting compatibility. Since you found a hardware player that seems allergic to -R 0 streams, why not test it for us. Make a -R 0 stream without DPME, and make a -R 1 or -R 2 stream (which will automatically force DPME off) and test it on the player. Let us know which one works and which one does not. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
