And I also am not getting the progress bar working still.  In mplayer,
when you seek, there is a bar image which normailly shows where you are in
the file, but in the tivo files, it does not indicate any position.  In
gmplayer, there is a scrollable progress bar thing, which in the tivo
files is permanently stuck to the beginning, and the time indication says
00:00:20/00:00:00 which I guess means it does not know how long the file
is.  I tried setting movi_end on the mpeg demuxer to the same as the
movi_end on my demuxer, as it was set to zero when I checked it at the end
of the open func.  This did not help.  Any ideas how to get the progress
bar working right?
