This is a bug in gqmpeg 0.5.1 that was exposed by the release of gtk 1.2.3,
the new gtk version realizes a widget when it is added as a child of one that
is already realized. I quickly released gqmpeg 0.5.2 to fix this.

The fix was simple: move the gtk_widget_set_events() calls to before the
widget is added to it's parent. (in this case a 1 line move)
