It's definitely not simple 'not enough CPU power' case (my box is Athlon
2000+ / 256MB DDR / TNT2 w/ NVidia drivers, Xv enabled). I even
restarted X to make sure[1], and it indeed occured, however I needed to
wait 3-5 minutes for it to become clearly visible. I don't think it's
specific to any particular file(s), it occurs on every movie I tried
(~20, ranging from 320x200 DivX 3, to 640x480 XviD & DivX 5, Low-res
Mpeg1 too[2]). In case of avi, video consistently goes ahead of audio,
in case of mpeg it's rather the opposite. Also, I tried on gst-player as
well as totem compiled for GStreamer, and it occured on both (I still
can't get gst-launch to work for me, so I couldn't have tested on that)
All of above applies to 0.6.3 from Debian. I haven't tried w/ HEAD yet.

[1] I apparently have some problems w/ my system, like X after 12h or so
starting to generate CPU usage peaks each 10s, which effects in every
X-clients & cursor 'freezing' for ~250ms - verry annoying. If someone
could help with these (i'm using Debian Sid), I would be very grateful.

[2]The problem is that in mpg I have either very short, carefully timed
videoclips, or loosely timed long ones, no 'normal' movies, so it's
harder to catch.
