Comment (by pulkomandy):

 The main problem is that gcc2 isn't very good at optimizing the code and
 the result is simply too slow to decode the video in realtime. However,
 there is an additional problem, which is that we don't handle that
 situation well.
 At some point, we start to "drop" frames. However, the codec still decodes
 them and wastes time doing so. And as a result, it never manages to catch
 up with the video replay, as it is always decoding old frames that have
 been dropped already.
 I don't know why or how this worked before, but it looks out of control of
 the ffmpeg decoder and more of a MediaPlayer/Media Kit issue.
