[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Do not fail DVB sub decoding because of a few padding bytes

[Reimar Döffinger]

Instead of returning an error when bytes are left over, just return
the number of actually used bytes as other decoders do.
Instead add a special case so an error will be returned when none
of the data looks valid to avoid making debugging a pain.
