Description

I know that WMV is a kind of crappy codec, but the german television companies use it for their public archives, so I have to deal with this WMV file.

I wanted to extract audio/video by using -dumpstream, but I get the following output:
$ mplayer -dumpstream 2007-03-30\ Tagesthemen\ -\ Antiterrordatei.wmv
MPlayer dev-SVN-rUNKNOWN-4.1.1 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team

Playing 2007-03-30 Tagesthemen.wmv.
Core dumped ;)

Exiting... (End of file)

You can get the file from mms://streamingarchiv.tagesschau.de/msmedia/2007/0330/TV-20070330-2339-2801.wm.hi.wmv
This bug does not appear when directly using "mplayer -dumpstream mms://streamingarchiv.tagesschau.de/msmedia/2007/0330/TV-20070330-2339-2801.wm.hi.wmv", only when dumping the file.

I've tested this on AMD64 and x86 (Intel)

core dumped is a joke message meaning file was dumped.

Oh. I see. Well, this is very misleading, maybe you should change this. I always thought it'd really dump core :-\.
