 No, I am not using nfs, I use the backend as streamer. The video is
 nowehere in the filesystem of the client.
 Btw: if available via NFS on the client, mplayer plays the file without
 problems.

 It seems to be connected with the RIFF chunks, whatever they are....

 If I convert my video:
 {{{
 mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -noodm in.avi -o out.avi
 }}}
 the resulting out.avi file can be played without problems.
