Okay, great! I think for radeon things should be the easiest since it
doesn't currently fill in anything but the colorspace field. Judging by
the bug report that Paulo mentioned this will probably not be enough for
some hardware, but should be enough according to the specification.
Having more data in the AVI infoframe shouldn't hurt, though.
