Alright, I've spent a lot of time trying to find information on this
problem, and I've come up blank.  Nobody proficient in mpeg schemes seems
to have any answers, and the mplex author's e-mail address doesn't exist
anymore.  So...  I was wondering if anyone would know how I could lay my
hands on the mpeg-1 ISO standards without dishing out a couple grand to
some organization in switzerland?  The ISO standards I'm looking for are
listed below...  If mplex won't work I'll just have to write a
replacement, or at least spend a few days staring at my mpeg bitstream to
see what the problem is.  In any event a good reference to the mpeg-1
standard would be helpful, so if anyone has it laying around, let me know,
thanks,

ISO/IEC 11172-1
ISO/IEC 11172-2
ISO/IEC 11172-3
ISO/IEC 11172-4
ISO/IEC TR 11172-5
