quicktime with two video tracks and extra foo, makes totem flicker

so quicktime allows crazy thing like this: http://bitlabmalmo.net/Members/ingemar/cinelerra-quicktime-h264-compared.mov 0.9 playes both video tracks and mixed over each other, funny but not the intended way to display it.(tested with totem and decodebin) {vlc opens another window, also strange,} i did not look closer into the mov file possibly it contains formation on how to arrange the video tracks, also no quicktime at hand to see how it looks in qt7.
can't get it to play either... I think demuxers don't handle correctly files with more than one 'same media type' stream.
It's playbin that didn't handle this properly. Jan fixed this yesterday; playing this file with playbin now works - it just plays one of the two video streams, as intended. I don't think the interface has been hooked up yet to be able to choose which stream to play. It also still fails randomly; I'm pretty sure that that's bug #322254.
