Description

Been regularly getting FAAD errors playing MKV files with mplayer on Linux, but
no problems with the same file using ZoomPlayer and CCCP on windows.
Result is no audio output in MPlayer

Error message:

FAAD: Failed to decode frame: Maximum number of scalefactor bands exceeded

The MPLayer version I'm using is from www.freshrpms.net

mplayer-1.0-0.20.pre7.2.fc4.i386.rpm

I had a look at the source file and it contains the faad2 libs in it and the
README in the libfaad2 directory says:

This is a FAAD2 2.1 beta CVS snapshot from 2004-07-12
On www.audiocoding.com the latest version is 15-09-2004 (no idea if this matters)

The file audio is 5.1 HE-AAC (according to ZoomPlayer)

My CPU is an Athlon64 3000+ but I only use x86 (since only that works)

The MPlayer output is:
# mplayer ../Z.mkv

Please retry with latest CVS, pre7 is too old to accept new bugreports against
it, sorry.

libfaad has been updated in CVS, the problem should be gone. Reopen the bug if
