That's not entirely accurate; the qtparser script inspects each atom 
untill it has all the info it needs. Though not highly elegant, there 
can not be confusion about what is an atom and what is 'binary data'. 
There's seeking, but no searching...

you go searching for jpeg headers? ;-)

How about the opposite? Parse quicktime files in your flash viewer. 
You'ld have to migrate to Flash 8.5 to do it properly (or rely on a 
server-based parser...). But that's an entirely different story, I know...
