[theora-dev] Theora support in ffdshow a ffvfw

[Dan Miller]

hmm...
 
well, perhaps Monty added some bytes that the ffvfw code is expecting, dunno.  As stated, VP3/Theora compatibility is not a requirement of this project, though if we decide _not_ to change the bitstream, it would seem shameful not to have compatibility.
 
As oft stated, this is very early code, anything could change -- API's, bitstreams, and so on.

        Hi
        
        I tried to play a short clip encodec with thoera (ffvfw) with my release of
        VP31 and it's not compatible. The output is very colorfull but the scene is
        unreconizable.

        Furthermore, the bitstream is not guaranteed to stay stable.
