can you please create a proper backtrace? I need to know what
instruction is illegal.

please also attach the contents of your /proc/cpuinfo

Sorry for late response, attached is the backtrace from `gdb ffmpeg` and then `r -i r00001.jpg tl.avi`.

(gdb) bt

Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)

I am experiencing the same problem.

It seems to be related to the architecture and mjpeg handling.

I could transform from h264 avi to flv without a problem, but when trying to extract a frame as jpeg I also got the "Illegal instruction" error:
ffmpeg -i Fenix.flv -t 00:00:1 -f mjpeg Fenix.jpg

Running the same command on the same file on my amd 64x x2 works as it should.

this bug seems is valid to me

it seems that mplayer is using a newer version of MMX than is supported on Pentium II machines. As easy workaround, you can move /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libswscale.so.0 out of the way.

Fixed in Lucid
