This could easily depend on the order of stuff in the file mplayer is reading. I guess something similar could happen for opening the pipes as well. The

I did a little poking about with the pcm-from-fifo problem I was having... What I'm attempting to do is an on-the-fly export from one file using mplayer to generate yuv4mpeg video frames and pcm audio, piped through fifo's. This DOES work with mpeg2enc/mp2enc, so I'm assuming it's not a problem with, e.g., my filesystem... the example encoder appears to successfully open and begin reading the audio stream, but 'hangs' there. I just ran a test using strace on the example encoder, and it appears to be hanging after determining the audio...
