If anyone is interested, this was because of a problem in fc-cache.
access(dir, W_OK) returned that it did not have write access
to the Windows font directory, which was not true, so it did not

try to dump the stream received from udp and compare it to the original.
BTW, in svn I fixed several bugs that did negatively affect demuxing mpeg-ts

if you read -cvslog you will find a lot of patches committed between rc1 
and now
that fixed a lot of bugs

Re: udp blockiness

I've tried to dump the stream and although I can't compare it exactly
because of the connectionless udp protocol I can view the stream without
errors from harddisk.

I will try the svn version.

I wondering if it has something to do with the streams being MPEG2-TS at
around 6-8Mbit/s and the buffer before the demuxer is not large
enough...

Did you install the binary codecs? Also if you compiled mplayer as 64
bit, it cannot use the binary codecs. It is best to compile mplayer as
32 bit so you can use all the codecs.

If it is the buffer, try setting a cache size.
