------- Comment #1 from Sebastian Dröge  2008-05-07 06:16 UTC -------
With latest CVS I get:


FlightSimX_720p60_51_15Mbps.wmv:

** Message: don't know how to handle audio/x-wma, wmaversion=(int)3,
bitrate=(int)384000, depth=(int)24, rate=(int)48000, channels=(int)6,
block_align=(int)16384, codec_data=(buffer)18003f0000000000000000000000e0000000



Test_1440x576_WVC1_6Mbps.wmv:

0:00:02.113567363 28450  0x8757c88 ERROR               ffmpeg :0:: Reserved
RES_SM=2 is forbidden


In theory we should be able to play WVC1 videos with ffdec_vc1 I guess and
afsdemux gives correct caps for the video for me:
/playbin0/decodebin0/asfdemux0.video_00: caps = video/x-wmv, wmvversion=(int)3,
fourcc=(fourcc)WVC1, width=(int)1440, height=(int)576,
codec_data=(buffer)250000010fdbbe2cf11f88800000010e10c4b3c47c80,
pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1, format=(fourcc)WVC1, framerate=(fraction)25/1


So there's two things to be done here IMHO:
a) ffmpeg needs wma3 support
b) ffmpeg needs to be fixed to correctly handle this particular WMV stream


Btw, mplayer plays those two files just fine but it uses win32 dll codecs to do
this.
