[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] better handling of some quicktime (mpeg4) files

I noticed that mplayer couldn't detect the movie length for some files
(see [1]) ; it displays a 00:00 length for them, no movie percentage in
the OSD, and when using the GUI, the seekbar doesn't react as expected
(you can click on the seekbar, but the pointer doesn't move and stays to
the left).
It seems that the mov demuxer lacks some functions ; I tried to
implement them. The result isn't the nicest (I couldn't understand some
stuff in mplayer code) but it's still better than nothing, IMHO.
I will be happy to get some feedback about this patch. It only affects
demux_mov.c (and still, very locally) and a couple of lines in demuxer.c
Regards.
