Some movies are apparantly encoded in BGRA instead of the more traditional
RGBA format.  My first thought is that the OpenGL header file you're
including doesn't support the GL_EXT_bgra extension.  See this webpage for
some more details.  It would be interesting to know what OpenGL extensions
are not supported when compiling against a MinGW GL/gl.h

I believe you could work around this with a software patch by swapping the
blue and red channels on the entire buffer.
