this is not really a bug, but looks like compiled with libmpeg1 rather than libmpeg3 this means, that movie-files are interpreted as streams, which have no known length, and thus are set to 1

I found the libmpeg1 somehow very buggy, and furthermore it just does an "exit" when it fails to load a file, which leads to surpises somehow.

libmpeg3 is not very accessible, so I vote to support the following libraries:

http://libmpeg2.sourceforge.net/ http://avifile.sourceforge.net/

For the beginning we could include the two versions in the GemLibs tarball.
