I've looked at this, and it seems to store the size of the original movie,
which is what I store in the Kate headers, rather than the size of the
current movie, which might be different, so I think abusing this to store
it would be, er, not welcomed, so I've not done it, and I've also disabled
the code to search for vout.

Hopefully, all streams using position/size info should have the original
size set anyway.

I've also cleaned up the string operations as mentioned.

Thanks
