All of the videos I've tried with mplayer pause at startup and won't play; there is also no audio. I can seek forward in time and the video displays the frames properly, but the movie pauses again but will not play by itself. The frames mplayer stops at are reproducible (see below).
I run Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 530 with an nVidia geforce 8600 GT graphics card.
The mplayer version and output, as well as some OS information is below; any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you
