Created an attachment (id=70628)
 --> (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=70628&action=view)
proposed patch

This is what I came up with. Basically, we need to look for siblings of the
'rmda' atom as well and in addition to the URI extract

 - the minimum required quicktime version (for sorting)
 - the minimum required bandwidth

if specified.

We want to pass multiple possible URIs to the application, but also maintain
the format we've been using so far. The attached patch determines a 'best'
redirect and bases the primary message structure on that as we did so far. If
there is more than just one URI, it will attach a "locations" field to the
structure which contains a GST_TYPE_LIST of GstStructures of all locations
(including information like mimimum-bandwidth).

The result is:
<qtdemux0> posting redirect message: redirect,
new-location=(string)http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/aug/wwdc_2006/wwdc_2006_1_350_ref.mov,
minimum-bitrate=(int)2800, locations=(GstStructure){ "redirect\,\
new-location\=\(string\)http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/aug/wwdc_2006/wwdc_2006_1_350_ref.mov\,\
minimum-bitrate\=\(int\)2800", "redirect\,\
new-location\=\(string\)http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/aug/wwdc_2006/wwdc_2006_1_350_ref.mov\,\
minimum-bitrate\=\(int\)2800", "redirect\,\
new-location\=\(string\)http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/aug/wwdc_2006/wwdc_2006_1_350_ref.mov\,\
minimum-bitrate\=\(int\)2800", "redirect\,\
new-location\=\(string\)http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/aug/wwdc_2006/qt7required.mov\,\
minimum-bitrate\=\(int\)2800" }

Not pretty, but in the end better than using new-location-2, minimum-bitrate-2
new-location-3, etc. IMHO.
