That's probably it, yes. Unfortunately ffmpeg is far from being the
very nice piece of software praised by some... codec and format
support is far from ideal. It also has serious troubles playing FLAC
files all by itself, for instance.

Oh, OK. I'm usually right next to the SB as it's on my desk so I read
the LCD most of the time.

The bug will be closed by the uploads of the fixed versions in
unstable and stable. There's not much I can do about the white noise,
other than reporting a bug against ffmpeg, but they'll ask for a
sample file to reproduce.

Feel free to open a bug against the version of libavcodecXY in Lenny
(can't remember what XY is in Lenny, 51?) as you're the one with a
sample file :)

JB.
