Mark, I don't have a solution for you but I'm wondering what issues
you're having with the Firewire-made recordings? I'm having issues
with playback of Firewire recordings where the video slows down
every couple of seconds. It only happens on digital channels (though
not all digital channels...)
to the aspect ratio

I'm wondering if maybe the new compiler or runtime is treating inf/nan
