Well, yes and no, the original code only works when that skeleton stuff
is in the file which seems not that common.

You can try the file at
http://code.google.com/p/gnome-mplayer/issues/detail?id=300
to convince yourself that the old code does not solve it and the
2nd case is needed

Now:                Duration: 00:01:00.34
with your patch:    Duration: 13:27:30.26
outputed wav:       Duration: 00:01:00.60

Either way there are several bugs in this code, ill try to fix this in
a moment but i dont have a idea for a really pretty fix.
better ideas / commits definitly welcome
