Remember, this is just *my* opinion, and may not be 100% true.
The reason why I think so, is because there are still parts of the
tystream that are unknown. Those could actually be audio or video
or something. Most programs today "ignore" them. Figuring out the
unknowns, bogus sequence issues, etc, are going to be what finally
unravels the mystery. :)
