why am i not surprised???? right, because it happens to me all the time. mpeg1 
contains only minimal syncing information. mplayer uses its own (oh so 
superior) a-v syncing, which screws up for me even on dvd's.
conclusion: don't use mplayer when you don't have to, for mpeg1 (vcd) 
ntuxplayer does the job better for me most of the time.
