I'm running CentOS 5.4 (2.6.18-164.9.1.el5, x86_65) and I installed Mplayer and some extra packages mentioned on
CentOS Wiki page. When I play some .avi files, mplayer error window pops up saying:
"[mpeg4 @ 0xb3a660]Invalid and inefficient vfw-avi packed B frames detected"
but then the video continues fine. It's just annoying. I've searched some forums but didn't get much clue.
Here is full output:
