OK, when I look at the details of a file recorded with the line above using:

	mplayer -identify -frames 1 -ao null -vo null out.avi

the fps is 25.000, but when I add "-fps 25" to the recording line above, 
the "Skipping frame!" message does indeed go away and on a short test 
file just now, it seems to fix the "catching up" problem too - but using:

	mplayer -identify -frames 1 -ao null -vo null test.avi
	
on the test file also says that the fps is 25.000 - so what is different 
between the two files?  (I see the bitrate is higher in the test file).

Thanks,

Phil.
