I tried some files from the jvt-experts ftp. The one inside this zip file
ftp://ftp.imtc-files.org/jvt-experts/bitstream_exchange/sp2_bt_b.zip could be
opened in the windows media player with the h.264 codec and couldn´t be opened
with the vlc.

However, the movie inside the file
ftp://ftp.imtc-files.org/jvt-experts/bitstream_exchange/AUD_MW_E.zip couldnt
be opened neither in wmplayer nor the vlc.
