I've also tried this ("-demuxer 35" if I understood right), but with no 
success. What do you mean by "works"? Do you really see the video or also 
just a grey picture most of the time?

I've also tried with ffplay now:

didi at linux:/store/src/ffmpeg.bak> ./ffplay /server/nfs/testfiles/H264/BBC/bbc-sample_small.mpg

and so on...

With "mplayer -demuxer 35" it's similar:

didi at linux:/ats/mycode> mplayer -demuxer
