Theora sure requires patching, because it's 3 first packets (bitstream 
headers) are stored as codec private data. I don't see any mpeg-related hacks 
in the demuxer, so that maybe what you are looking for.

Anyway, you have to convert matroska CodecId to fourcc for everything except 
VfW-compatibility mode tracks.
