Why do some file types (particularly Quicktime) always show up as 1:40 long when I know thats not right?
A. Check out the readme under the known bugs section. These are files that MPlayer sees having a length of 0, so QUI can’t seek normally in them. 1:40 is 100 seconds, so it seeks to the appropriate percentage of the file instead. Obviously the time while playing is going to be wrong under these circumstances.
