So is there any way to fix the timestamps without re-encoding (perhaps 
some hidden preference in VLC?), or am I forever stuck with mplayer 
playback for this particular file? Now that you mention it, the video 
does lag behind the audio (but only very slightly) when playing in 
mplayer, so my claim of "flawless" playback may be slightly exaggerated 
- what I should have said is that the audio and video are perfectly 
decoded, although not perfectly in sync.

Thanks for the response,
