Thank for that Pierre, but this patch assumes that seek functionality in ftp
is working, and currently it does not (at least in my environment with
stupid-ftp). Previously I was submitting patch that fixes ftp-seek and
changes avi-module to use either FAST_SEEK or SEEK.
Can we apply this patch as well?
