Hah!  Yes, for interest I downloaded the Big_Bunny file from Wikimedia
[an annoyingly big file!], and it fails for me in omxplayer, too.
Moved it over to my Haiku machine, and it plays fine there.

I copied over a much smaller (and lower res)ogv file I happened to have,
and it won't play that, either.  I wonder if it handles that format at all?
A bit strange that it doesn't.
