 When the bit rate for IVTV recorded programs is set high, the resulting
 files can cause remote frontends problems, especially when trying to seek.
 The problems typically begin once the playback is past the 2G or so mark.

 The problem appears to be in the ivtvdecoder. One function, StepFrames, is
 converting the frame counts to an int. This truncates both the location
 when trying to seek, as well as the count when trying to seek a huge
 amount (e.g. to get to that bookmark late in the recording).

 A patch fixing this problem, essentially using "long long" instead of ints
 is attached.
