It was playing nice for me on latest SHR image with 3.4 and
MPlayer2 2.0-379-ge3f5043 (C) 2000-2011 MPlayer Team

but always after first 20-30s it got stuck and I had to ^C mplayer2
MPlayer interrupted by signal 2 in module: sleep_timer

When playing it for 5th time, I also got something like 1 fps or less
(without changing anything).

But this can be some bug in mplayer2 binary I'm using..

Cheers,
