Please describe the problem:
When presented with multiple video and audio stream mmssrc picks the crappiest
version. This sucks because it can't be solved by buying a faster Internets
connection or moving to a country where the Internets is fast. The highest
quality stream should ofc be selected automagically.

Steps to reproduce:
1. start totem with
mms://wm0.c90805.cdn.qbrick.com/90805/kluster/20080512/080512kobra.wmv
2. look at blurry image
3. check properties and find 384 x 216


Actual results:
crappy image is shown

Expected results:
nice image should be shown

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
VLC gets things right and plays the 640x360 version instead:

[0x93ccdb8] access_mms access: ignoring stream[0x1] audio (35 kb/s)
[0x93ccdb8] access_mms access: selecting stream[0x2] audio (67 kb/s)
[0x93ccdb8] access_mms access: selecting stream[0x3] video (738 kb/s)
[0x93ccdb8] access_mms access: ignoring stream[0x4] video (207 kb/s)
[0x93ccdb8] access_mms access: connection successful
