I think they're already as small as I can practically make them.  The
biggest is only 600 KiloBytes.  In fact, my whole set of four is smaller
(2.0 MB) than the smallest existing test file (2.3 MB for 12345.mv) in
FATE's mv directory.

In fact, the stereo16bit.movie example is redundant since there are
already samples with that combination.  So you'd really only need about
1.4 MB of new test files.
