Hey, does anyone know of a utility that will reverse the direction of a
video file (probably would only work with .avi format) so it plays
backwards? I used to use this effect now and then in my old VHS editing
days with a high-end VHS deck that had a real-time reverse function. So
far i haven't encountered anything in the digital realm to do this.

Frankly i'm rather surprised that VF doesn't have this function. It seems
like it would be a rather simple operation. How about it SF? Maybe this
would be a good addition for the next version?
