[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] mov: Properly abide by the track's media duration

[Derek Buitenhuis]

The track's media duration from the mdhd atom takes precedence
over both the stts and elst atom for calculating and setting
the track's total duraion.

Technically, we shouldn't be using the stts atom at all for
calculating stream durations.

This fixes incorrect stream and final packet durations on files
with edit lists that are longer than the media duration.

Personally I'd have removed the incorrect setting of the stream
duration in the stts reading code...
