[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] compute correct length for theora videos

Hello,

this is a patch to let mplayer compute the correct duration of a theora video 
when libtheora support is compiled in (especially when running in "-identify 
mode"). To not repeat myself I'll just post links to the important posts of 
the bug report in the mplayer-users list. The baisc concept of the patch is 
also explained there:

http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2008-May/072933.html
If this doesn't suffice, please ask for further clarification.

The patch is written against the current SVN version (Revision 26728 according 
to "svn update", "mplayer" identifies itself as "MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.2.3") and 
tested on my system (Kernel 2.6.24.16, 32 bit linux but running on a 64 bit 
amd cpu; libtheora is version 1.0~beta2-2 from the Ubuntu repositories, if 
this is important).

Thanks in advance,
Julian.
