I improved it a bit.

1) The demo now uses bash's "select" extension,
so you have to run it with "bash codecdemo".  Now it's all menu-driven,
so you can try whichever media sample you want, rather
than trying them all in a row.

2) by default, it doesn't install any codecs at all, so you
can see what the codecs Wine comes with can handle.
The codec installers are in the menu at the top.

3) I added all the sample clips from
http://www.jhepple.com/support/sample_movies1.htm

Dirac / Schroedinger support is still next on the to-do list :-)
