 I don't plan to maintain the native real demuxer and it will probably be removed
at some point, so I think it would be best for the next release to have it
deactivated by default to catch any issues we may have.
 Also, as soon as the avformat demuxer is enabled and has a higher priority,
it will prevent our demuxer from kicking in (weither or not it has a priority > 0).
