Thx for your quick response;

for starters, I have found my "mistake": the flv video contains mp3
audio (single track 22050 Hz).
When encoding to brent.mpg, audio was encoded as "mp2 mono" and
mis-recognized in cinelerra as having two tracks.

When I gave the additional option -acodec mp3 to ffmpeg, I have created
a brent2.mpg file which is now correctly recognized by cinelerra as
having a single audio track; playback now seems to work as normal.

When I go back to work in January, I might upload the files (asymmetric
broadband at home....), but the only difference in ffmpeg encoding I used
is the -acodec mp3 switch. Interestingly though, ffmpeg -i on both files
still reads

Input #0, mpeg, from 'brent.mpg':  ------------------> without -acodec
mp3 switch
  Duration: 00:03:53.6, start: 0.500000, bitrate: 570 kb/s
  Stream #0.0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg1video, yuv420p, 320x240, 104857 kb/s,
25.00 fps(r)
  Stream #0.1[0x1c0]: Audio: mp2, 22050 Hz, mono, 56 kb/s

Input #0, mpeg, from 'brent2.mpg' ------------------> with -acodec mp3
switch:
  Duration: 00:03:53.7, start: 0.500000, bitrate: 570 kb/s
  Stream #0.0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg1video, yuv420p, 320x240, 104857 kb/s,
25.00 fps(r)
  Stream #0.1[0x1c0]: Audio: mp2, 22050 Hz, mono, 56 kb/s


Which looks the same to me, although the file sizes are different (by a
little) and only the latter file works ok in cinelerra.
