mxf inconsistent FooterPartition value: 10947448631 != 4294967298

[Alex Zhukov]

This looks like ticket https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/879
but this time i have example file and it does contain FooterPartition
I also suggested a patch on the mailing list but it brakes the mxf seeking test.
Anyway
the test file is here ​http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1109725/zero.mxf.gz
(warning: it ungzips to a 10GB file)

With ffmpeg-0.7.11
ffmpeg -i zero.mxf
