They are the only ones using uncompressed (I don't call ulaw
compression, sorry) audio in a mov container I guess.

I attached a patch, but I don't know if it breaks something (well, it
can only break ulaw/alaw audio in mov so who cares actually...).
Did I mention that I think mov is the worst thing constructed in the history of
mankind?
