True, I just thought that if there was no way of properly splitting
the file, that a demonstration would help somewhat.  I do
troubleshooting work personally, and am somewhat of a nitpicker/detail
noticer; for me, actually seeing the result usually helps me
immensely.

OK, I just was not entirely sure that the stream would still be
playable if i just chopped it at some random byte, as opposed to a
sequence split/GOP split/ whatnot.
I'll test this and then upload it to the public FTP.
