OGM problems (XINE and MPlayer)
I'm in the process of learning how to create video files in OGM
format, and have had some moderate success so far. First, I created
an AVI file and added music to it using AVIDemux. Then, I used
mencoder to convert to OGM, since AVIDemux seems to choke when I try
to save my file as OGM.
Now, I can get the OGM file to play in mplayer. It plays through fine
the first time. However, when the file finishes playing a second
time, mplayer crashes. For diagnostic purposes, I ran mplayer from a
command prompt, and this is what I got:

Also, I noticed that right at the end, there is a real brief buzzing
noise that isn't there in the AVI version. Are there any tools
available to directly edit an OGM file that I may be able to use to
fix that end buzz?
And finally, XINE does not seem to be able to play these OGM files for
some reason. I have the Win32 Codecs package installed, and can play
.ogg audio files with XINE, but .OGM files simply don't work. Here is
the error I get:
"Video Codec Unavailable (FMP4)"
What do I need to install to get this to work with XINE?
