Or use the patch found on my page http://pulp.mine.nu/dvbvideolan

This is not necessary anymore. The whole code for streaming is in the patch
now (including the rtp-stack).

I want to make this configurable via the osd sometimes, but that's not top

Yes, because it was simplest to rewrite some code of the recording section
for the moment (was my first patch ever :-) )

Hm, that's weird. I never noticed thie behaviour in conjunction with the
windows player. I didn't try mplayer yet, because it crashes my whole
