without having a full understanding of the problem, i somehow doubt that
the problem is really in pdp/pidip but rather within libquicktime.
putting a warning in the calling application might be even more
confusing, once the codec get's fixed upstream.
filtering for a certain codec can also be confusing, since the
codec-names are dynamically extracted from what libquicktime offers, and
thus can change by simply installing/upgrading a certain plugin.
of course this doesn't help you with your problem.
