MPEG has similar issues with STDIN

curl "http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger/test.mpg" | mplayer -
cat test.mpg | mplayer -

Playing -
Reading from stdin...
Searching demuxer type for filename - ext: (null)
Invalid MPEG-ES stream??? Contact the author, it may be a bug :(
Falling back on trying to parse playlist -..

However, if I do the following

curl "http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger/test.mpg" | mplayer -cache 65535 -

It works fine...
So if the cache is set real high, then it works, this also seems to work for 
the non-reference quicktime files as well.
