I've got a 3.2 GHz P4 and it plays, it's just funky - kind of like you
describe above.
Are you referring to the top_field_first and repeat_first_field flags?
I checked my problem recordings and these flags are set within them.
Recordings where they're unset play fine.
If there's anything I can do to help fix / test this let me know.
