-probesize doesn't seem to improve the situation at all.

Is there a way I can tell ffplay to play at 20 fps even though my source 
is 15 or whatever -- so that it will always be running out of frames? 
(and keeping its buffer empty?

Ahh, I just thought of this -- I could go into the ffmpeg source if I 
were smart enough and comment out all the timing code that enforced the 
fps..!

thanks,
