 totem plays the sample here exactly like ffplay and ffmpeg.
 (Rereading the original post: Is it possible that this was just "wrong bug
 tracker"?)

 assume 1bit ppm or bmp.)

 I just realize that this can be misunderstood: I meant h264 video packets
 that consist only of 0x00 and 0x01 are most likely invalid;-)

 header?

 Certainly possible, but is the large header really supposed to be in the
 middle of the file?

 > Also, the frames around this timestamp have very low differences, so
 it's not surprising to have small data frames.

 This is of course also possible but I would have expected those small data
 frames to be >0 in size (many packets in the broken part of the file have
 size 0) and not containing only 0x00 and 0x01.
