The last time I had a look at libmpeg3 it was only able to handle packet
sizes of exactly 2048 bytes. This is wrong for the KFir encoded
material. It leads to seeking around in 2048 chunks without finding the
correct starting point in the file. The Holtzman's decoder or dvdview or
videolan is much better.
