<title>Fixing AVIs with broken index or interleaving</title>

Easiest thing. We simply copy the video and audio streams, and
<application>MEncoder</application> generates the index. Of course this cannot fix possible bugs in
the video and/or audio streams. It also fixes files with broken interleaving,
thus the <option>-ni</option> option won't be needed for them anymore.
