Nick Burch commented on TIKA-3023:
----------------------------------

The FFMpeg project have some sample SGI Movie files at 
[https://samples.ffmpeg.org/sgi/]

Based on looking at a few, I think MOVI followed by a very low or high byte 
ought to be a safe check. I've added that in {{0d259bc8b}}

> Text files starting with MOVI are detected as X-SGI-Movie

>             Project: Tika
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.23
>         Environment: Issue recreated on
> Windows 10 Professional 64bit running the runnable Jar
> Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS running Tika-Python

> If a plaintext file starts with "MOVI" Tika labels it as an SGI Movie.
> The hex conversion for MOVI is 4D 4F 56 49 which is the same as the header 
> for the SGI Movie file format
> [https://reposcope.com/mimetype/video/x-sgi-movie]
>  
> This SGI format isn't supported so any information from a text file starting 
> like this would be lost. I've attached a simple file that should recreate the 
> problem.
