Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ffmpeg

The current version of libavcodec is old (doesn't export the function 
avcodec_decode_video2) and bugged; it can't decode any Theora video stream.
Simply use the avcodec API to try to read a frame with the function 
avcodec_decode_video from a Theora stream and the content you get is scrambled.
Testing the same code against a newer version of libavcodec (from the FFmpeg 
website) is ok, Theora streams work (plus the avcodec_decode_video2 is being 
exported as well).
