Should print out something like this when you start watching the program:

Changing from None to WatchingPreRecorded
Input #0, mpeg, from '/mnt/store//1004_20030430200000_20030430210000.nuv':
  Stream #0.0: Video: mpegvideo, 720x480, 29.97 fps, 16000 kb/s
  Stream #0.1: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, 384 kb/s
Position map found
Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'.

Should only print out 'Position map found', if, well, it's there =)
