Hi,

here are some things which bugged me for a while, but I never reported them, although 
I found workarounds for them (lazy me).
My setup is Duron 600, gcc 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease) on Debian woody.

1. When I compile with avifile default cpu/arch settings for my computer (mcpu=i686)
I get a segfault while using ffmpeg (just setting the mcpu (!) seems to be sufficient 
to cause this problem).
Recompiling plugins/libffmpeg/ with mcpu=i586 solves this problem.
Did you hear about anyone else with similar problem?

2. Avirec sometimes produces a file which is not playable by aviplay. Both video and 
audio streams playback is affected - it seems that only some of the frames are played. 
Xine copes with such avi files without problems. I have a sample avi (~200 KB) for 
those willing to work on it.

3. Some (well, most, if thruth be told) of the AVI+AC3 files don't play back properly 
on hardware decoder. It seems that there is some demuxer problem for ac3 stream. ac3 
plugin tries to resync the stream and half of the frames is lost, which affects the 
sound quality considerably :-).  The funny thing is that software decoder works fine. 
Xine plays those files without problems (both hardware and software).


This is sort of initial bug request and I am prepared to give any kind of more 
detailed information if you want to. If nobody is working/willing to work on those 
problems I can give them a try.


regards,

Przemyslaw
