I don't think the ffmpeg RM demuxer has any code to deal with these
kind of multirate files. ./ffplay -ast 4 works, that's the only
non-multirate track in it, all other tracks are multirate and don't
work. I don't know what that means, mplayer can play track 0-3 and 5,
but not track 4 (apparently it does either only multirate for
multirate files, or only non-multirate for plain files, but not both
for multirate files).

Maybe whoever added multirate support to the mplayer demuxer could
port that to ffmpeg, or sort of explain what it means (or both)? I'm
not quite sure what the difference is, but I didn't really look very
carefully.

Ronald
