Description

In Mplayer v13 and v14,When I play some *.rmvb files,The player will crash after about one minute,So I must Force Quit The Player.
I think the reason is that Ther Player can't read the cache any more after reading the first one cache ,So The Player crash.
But the *.rmvb files are correct in MPlayer v12 and MplayerX.
Please confirm this bug and Fix it.

I am sorry for my poor English.
If you have any questions for this, you can send E-mail to me. Thank you.

I had a rmvb sample lying around that caused MPE to hang after a couple of seconds. But that wasn't caused by the video but by character encoding issues with the file's metadata, which OSX stubbornly refuses to read. I now use iconv to clean mplayer's output from any invalid UTF-8 byte sequences and that fixed the issue for me. Please check the upcoming test release to see if the fix applies to your files as well.
