ok, I tried more experiments, If I dump the stream in raw format with vlc on my machine : http://mattieu.b.free.fr/openbsd/test2.avi the video is very ugly. If I try to view this file with mplayer, it's ok. If dump another sequence of the same stream from the server (debian fully unstable machine) : http://mattieu.b.free.fr/openbsd/test.avi , I can play it with vlc (and mplayer) on my machine. I just updated ffmpeg to see if it helps but without luck. -- Mattieu Baptiste "/earth is 102% full ... please delete anyone you can."
