 After the introduction of the "smptehdsrc" filter, the "-help full" of
 ffmpeg will be caught in a infinite loop just repeating forever the block
 below:

 {{{
 smptebars AVOptions:
   size              <image_size> ..FV.. set video size
   s                 <image_size> ..FV.. set video size
   rate              <video_rate> ..FV.. set video rate

 }}}


 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 $ ffmpeg -help full
 ffmpeg version N-38183-gd9be6e6 Copyright (c) 2000-2013 the FFmpeg
 developers
   built on Apr 14 2013 03:08:59 with gcc 4.7 (Ubuntu/Linaro
 4.7.2-2ubuntu1)

 ... infinite output
 }}}

 I have a program that parses the output of the above command and it end up
 using all available memory until the computer stops responding.
