I'm not going to dive it it myself; let's see if we can find someone who knows what's going on. A couple of guys working on Pre Make Kit (pmk, see http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1569713&group_id=94395&atid=607694) try hard to make it work but up frustrated, concluding "Projects that mix assembly and C code must all fail on MacOS X Intel machines." They also say mplayer avoids the problem by using C embedded assembly. Aside from the probably unattractive option of switching to C embedded assembly, this is clearly not a transcode problem. Dave
