ImageJ opens first frame in lossless compressed Metamorph .stk files only

Hi!
Since I am usually doing voluminous timelapse recordings, I have
switched on the lossless compression in Metamorph (which is the software
used on the imaging computer). This sadly leads ImageJ to read the
first frame of the recording only. Pushing "/" opens the reslice menu. I
am currently using ImageJ 1.41j.
A sample is provided on http://www.megaupload.com/?d=47JYI4SB (sorry for
the inconvenience using a public filesharer, my university does not
provide ftp-space). If the stream works, a number of dots should
disappear after about 20 seconds and general bleaching occurs over the
whole timelapse.

Would be great if this problem could be fixed!

Please tell me if I can provide any further information!
