Sure, it's odd that mplayer cannot play such 001.vdr files at the
moment. I already had a look into mplayer's source and discovered why
mplayer chose the wrong codec, but I'm still waiting for someone else to
fix this issue. Digging around in the hardly known code of FFmpeg and
now also mplayer plus creating patches eats a lot of time.

I get similar messages here. Try to play the stream in slow motion and
they should go away.

The attached patch is also part of the larger xine-lib.patch included in
vdr-xine-0.7.11.tgz.
