WVP2 Video/Image Codec not supported by gstreamer plugins or ffmpeg. Windows
Media Video 9.1 Image V2 is a DMO-based codec. Optimized for encoding video
from sequential bitmap images.

There is no codec pack or application that is able to view this type of file.

Example Media:
http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/V-codecs/IV50/indeo50.avi

Current result:
Only audio plays. Visual content is not displayed.

Expected result:
Plays both audio and visual content in sync, with no delay.

This bug was create to request IV50 to be supported by gstreamer and ffmpeg. If this is
not possible due to legal issues or other roadblocks, please define what the
issue is with supporting this codec.

Tested on:
i386, Ubuntu Desktop 9.10, Linux 2.6.31-15
