What I said in my earlier message in this thread is
essentially a shorter version of what I said in
comp.sys.sgi.graphics.

You should not be worried.  In this case, no news is good news.

As Vernon Schryver said in a separate message, I cannot
comment on features and availability dates for unreleased
products.

I do want to point out, however, that if your needs for
movies on the Indigo do not include exchange with Macintosh
applications, we already provide a Movie Tools pacakge
bundled with IRIX 4.0.5F.  You get a movie player, an
application for creating and editing movies, and a utility
for recording live video from the IndigoVideo board.

If you own an Indigo and have a maintenance contract for OS
releases, simply contact Silicon Graphics and ask for an
upgrade to IRIX 4.0.5F.
