For those interested: It is a really simple codec, two bytes header in
each frame, one that tells if you have a keyframe or not (non-keyframes
must simply be added to the last frame byte-wise), and one that tells
you the compression method: either zlib or libzo. Shouldn't be too hard
to implement in libavcodec, maybe starting with tssc or so as a base.
