Sorry for the delay... I attach my patch (a little bit old, but it still
applies). I think it's just a different version of the patch just re-posted
by Ramiro.

I just tested this patch with a logitech something webcam (which produces
MJPEG video), and it works wonderfully with both ffmpeg and ffplay (I cannot
use "-vcodec copy" in ffmpeg, because I get the "non-monotone timestamp"
error, but I think this is an unrelated issue).

More testing (and/or feedback) is welcome.
