I would have thought so too, but it doesn't work.

Done. cinelerra_mov.tar.bz2 (yes, it really is just 24k)

(The rest of this mail is also in README in the archive)

These files all contain the same sequence, three frames at 1fps. The first 
one says "red", in red. The second one adds "green" in green, and the third 
adds "blue" in blue.

Component\d+bit4+\.mov are Y'CbCrA? in 8 or 10bit per value. "Component"
isn't specified what it is in cinelerra. The other filenames should be clear
enough.

Component10bit444.mov and RGBA.mov don't play back right in xmovie either, 
so maybe they're broken..

RGB.mov and YUV420.mov play with my patch, but they also made me notice 
that both the first and last frames are skipped.
