Problem when play XviD ISO MPEG-4

[Ryo94]

Most of the time I use players with built-in decoders like GOM or KM but in order to fix some subtitles I need to use the preview of subtitle workshop that use the decoder installed in my system (Xvid 1.1.2). Now I realize that there is a problem to play well some files encoded with an old version of Xvid in subtitle workshop (these files play fine with GOM) so I would like to know if this is a bug in Xvid 1.x decoder or if these files were encoded with a buggy xvid. I know that probably install ffdshow will be fix this but since I almost will never use it but only in subtitle workshop I want to keep this option as the last choice.
According to Gspot all these files were encoded with "XviD ISO MPEG-4" and have in common that contain "0 maximum consecutive B-Frames".

Video Sample (XviD ISO MPEG-4, 8.1MB)

What exactly happens when you play the file in Subtitle Workshop?

[Ryo94]

In Subtitle Workshop preview or any other player that use the xvid decoder (insted some embeded mpeg4 dec) the movie jump by scenes (or keyframes, I'm not sure). The movie display a weird number in "average and maximun keyframe (I-Frame) distance, see:



So since it jump by scenes you can realize that it's imposible to sync subtitles in Subtitle Workshop, anyway I'm almost 100% sure that the problem is in the movie.

Just downloaded the file,

if these files were encoded with a buggy xvid

Yes; likely an early release.
