User can overwrite codecs.conf, by us vid_*.xa is a symlink. We should
write this to the documentation too.

One possible solution would be that adding "joker-char" support to codecs.conf
parser, e.g.: "vid_iv50_*.xa" and it would use the first matching file.

The second is to write a little script.
