I suggested removing the alea.mpg file (and maybe replace the other
antiquated media files too).

There is no way to remove MPEG-1 support as it's part of Quicktime.
 There's also no way to play an MPEG-1 in an 'alternate' way than just
straight ahead QT calls other than completely changing the code to whatever
half-assed Cocoa replacement Apple is trying to sell this month.  QT used
to be a feature rich API for professional media creation, now it's just
something that plays video on a phone.
