Thanks--it's good to learn something.  Does it matter whether that 1000 fps=

Would you expect that whatever created the video also intended the 1000 fps=

Do you know of any sort of more "surgical" tool that might let me examine a=

Looks like it, as there is a -demuxer option in man mplayer.  But, I normal=

Ok, that's interesting also--so you think that if I upgraded mplayer, it co=

handle the 1000 fps framerate (for the container) and the different 29.nn =

frame rate for the codec without choking, as my current mplayer does?

Maybe I should get more serious about replacing my system soon (and doing t=

entire upgrade, Debian 6.0, kde 4, etc.

Thanks again!
