This is quite a problem - could you put this file somewhere on the web ?

The problem with 'transcode guys'n gals' is - they have never
contacted me and never reported a single bug (actually the only
way I'll learn about their problems is - when I check transcode
homepage from time to time)

I've already seen such file - and it was kind of interesting - it's
been ASF file playeable with opendivx decoder - however it's been
sometime showing correct picture and sometime not - I've been
check summing all passed parameters and they were the same so I've
conclude the bug is in DivX4 decoder which has somewhat nondeterministic
behaviur (I suppose something is not initilized to 0 and when the player
is started sometime I've the luck and codec allocated zeroed memory)

I think this now depends on Eugene.

FFmpeg is unable to decompress these files at all (Arpi - have 
you checked that divx4  asf file ?)

Have you tried to use DivX4.12 Windows Codec ?
