[VCDImager Bugs/Devel] Unable to play avseq01.dat in mplayer

[Jeff Cole]

Hi

I've encountered a strange phenomenon that could be a bug. I created a
VCD with VCDEasy with chapters which plays well on our Pioneer DVD
player, but trying to play the AVSEQ01.DAT in Windows Media Player comes
up with the error 'No combination of filters could be found to render
the stream'! 

I've ripped the bin created (using VCDEasy) and have reconstituted the
mpg file and no problem playing that. 

I've created other VCDs with Nero and had no difficulty playing the
avseq01.dat file in mplayer2.exe.

Here's the VCD Easy Log
