It is spec-incompliant (mpeg1 does not allow mpeg2 tables and therefore
an mpeg1 bitstream has no field to signal which tables to use) and
undecodable by a spec-compliant decoder. One could write a decoder that
decodes it (namely one that uses the mpeg2-tables automatically), but I
am not aware of such a decoder existing.
I am not against just removing the option now. What do others think
about this?
