New subject: [Ffmpeg-user] Negative size returned by avcodec_decode_audio

28 Apr 2005

      I'm decoding a fairly standard mpeg-2 stream with avcodec CVS from a couple of 
weeks ago. This call sometimes returns a negative value for decode_size. e.g. 
len would be 1688 and decode_size would be -128. The comment for 
avcodec_decode_audio seems to imply that a negative value here is wrong (i.e. 
it should be the size of the data or 0, not sure why it's a signed value...)

	len = avcodec_decode_audio(codec_context, buf, &decode_size, 
				   packet->data, packet->size);

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks,
