        Actually it would surprise me.  ffmpeg/mplayer's quicktime muxing has,
        at other times, been quite primitive compared to libquicktime.

        Agreed though that it could well be a libquicktime problem.

        That would be a good next step - if it is a libquicktime problem it'll
        get fixed quite rapidly (but that will mean upgrading libquicktime on
        the system(s) to the cvs version).  If it's not a libquicktime problem
        they'll be able to point out what ffmpeg is doing incorrectly.

        Cheers,
