Ok, I'll keep Pd-extended's Gem using the 0.93 branch then.

Pd-extended's Gem was up-to-date to the Gem 0.93 branch, except for the most recent three commits, which don't seem related to John's bug:

* open shader files as binary
* open shader files as binary (part2)
* help patch for [trapezoid]

I just committed those three.  So Pd-extended builds can be used to test this as well.

This bug is most definitely a new bug that does not affect Pd-extended 0.42.5 at all.  The videos also play fine in Quicktime and in Pd-extended 0.42.5.
