well AFAIK it seeks to the very end to read the index. quite some
buffer would be required to compensate for that :) maybe you can try to
disable reading the index on load (index is only required for seeking).
but still, AVI is just not designed for being streamed, I somewhat doubt
that this will work.
if pipes aren't absolutely necessary, I usually first transcode with
Mencoder aplying all necessary filtering (spp, cropping, scaling,
framerate adjust etc.) and make Mencoder store the result into an AVI
with _lossless_ compression (-lavcopts vcodec=ffvhuff:vstrict=-2; or try
vcodec=ffv1 for better compression). Then I use ffmpeg2theora or
mplayer&encoder_example for encoding...
regards,
David
