Hmm, can I count this as a vote to create a new tag,
possibly 'CAVS', for this format?
That would pave an easy way to use the decoder in MPlayer, by just defining
it in codecs.conf and decoding with 'mplayer -demuxer lavf foo.avs'.
The other way would be to properly support it in MPlayer's MPEG demuxer.
For this I adapted Mans' way of detecting AVS into it, but that still
leaves me with two problems: Firstly, the demuxer delivers the bytestream
truncated, and secondly I need to find some way to get the framerate across.
