add support for (maybe broken) *.divx file

[ami_stuff]

 http://kakonacl.dip.jp/PlayerTry/TestMovies/Others/DivX6.11_MP3(Vidomi).divx

the file may be broken, but "Media Player Classic" and "VLC Player" can play it, so let it be playable with ffplay as well

Do you have any other info on the file? Patch below allows playback, but the subtitle format is not xsub it seems, any idea what it might be??

Sorry no info (just a random file found with Google).

It is acceptable to just ignore the unknown stream? Here is another file which plays with mplayer/vlc/xing/mpc, but not with ffplay (ffmpeg).
