Thats why I suggest that you try to describe the *report* you want as
completely as possible.  I don't see the volume spanning being a big
deal at all if you're just looking at each media file independently.

There's *lots* of edge cases here.  Streams could potentially stop and
start in the middle of a media file.  So you could have 5 different
ssids in a file where no more than 4 were active simultaneously.  You
could probably detect that by looking for head and tail of ssids, but
I'm not sure it's worth the bother.
