Well, that's one option. Note however that we can't just alias or shim the
filter directly, however. The MPEG splitter doesn't decode the stream the same
way that our gstreamer filter would; we'd essentially have to manually create
an mpegpsdemux element and duplicate much of the same wiring. I think utilising
gstreamer is probably the best way forward (alas, libmpeg2 being GPL), but
it'll have to be more of "MPEG-1 splitter using gstreamer as a backend" than
"MPEG-1 splitter shimming to existing winegstreamer demuxer".
