The loop filter is identical to the VC1 spec and the one in the  
reference implementation.
The file I have that uses the loop filter is bitexact to the binary  
codec for I and P frames, but not B frames.
Of the files I have that do not use the loop filter, three are  
bitexact and one is not bitexact for any frame.
The two files that aren't bitexact are from HDDVD rips, so I'll create  
a roundup ticket since there's probably some weird feature or  
something being used.
