	Thanks for your work on this. I will check it over tonight if no one 
beats me to it.

	What have you figured out about v2? Are the frames constant- or 
variably-sized? Are you reverse engineering the binary or visually 
inspecting the compressed video data?

	"fps1" is currently the top search string driving people to my 
multimedia.cx site. This work should be useful.
