Comment (by ramcq):

 Replying to [comment:11 cehoyos]:
 > You misunderstand: If you use `--enable-nonfree`, you are not allowed to
 distribute the resulting binary. Please understand that we have no means
 to re-instate your license to distribute FFmpeg, so if you distribute
 binaries compiled with `--enable-nonfree`, you will permanently lose the
 right to distribute FFmpeg.

 I spent a long time being very confused about how this was consistent with
 the statement at https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/47a81832 that
 fdk-aac can be used together with ffmpeg under an LGPL license. I
 eventually realised my error - somehow I had ended up with the impression
 that `--enable-nonfree` was a pre-requisite to enabling libfdk-aac, which
 I now see is not the case.

 `--enable-nonfree` in fact allows you to proceed with conflicting licensed
 GPL and GPL-incompatible code linked together, which would indeed be not
 redistributable. We're not using any of the GPL parts, so I've removed
 `--enable-nonfree` from our configuration (along with `--enable-gpl`).
 Thanks for the pointer.

 Now: about the bug - is there something in ffplay which would continue
 decoding if an error comes back from _decode_frame (within some
 parameters) if we return the right value?
