However, I'd keep it simple for now and just try to test the most common cases: - a DVD menu, with a few minutes of movie - a few minutes of VCD - an MPEG clip - seeking wildly through an MPEG file - a few DivX family clips - an MP3 with goom To keep things easy, I'd just propose to collect a set of streams, and maybe some instructions how to test them before releasing.
