I have uploaded the latest svn and added in ffmpeg.c a print of 
nb_streams after the av_find_stram_info near line 2812. On an mpeg of 
mine which I *know* has 2 streams, it prints 2.

I'd say the next step is that you create a minimal source and MPEG file 
(preferrably 2MB at most) that reproduces your trouble. Then post the 
source and e-mail the mpeg to those who ask.
