Re: Broken video

The problem is that the videos are in Theora, which just plain never works. In some videos the picture freezes for tens of seconds while the audio keeps going, in others you get stutter for quite a long time (not a bug in the player but in the video stream, you can fast forward past the erroneous parts). Something as simple as displaying the length of the video is horribly broken. It always displays a total length of 59 hours 32 minutes and 16 seconds or something like that. This happens in MPlayer, Kaffeine, VLC, Xine, etc.

Never works ey? then how come all the streams i've seen has always worked perfectly? oh in fact i even have lots of them saved to my disk, and big surprise: they STILL work? what a fantastic miracle for something that "just plain never works", i guess i must be special, seeing as though im able to compile a totally standard mplayer/ffmpeg/xine that is able to play them..

hail me!!!!!

or wait, perhaps im not special, and theora actually works, but you are doing something so weird i can not even think up what? just a few things to consider...
