 > > There is a call to ffio_ensure_seekback() which looks like it's meant
 to ensure that it is always possible to seek back by this amount, but from
 what I can tell this will work only at the beginning of the stream (i.e.
 for probing or headers) and not mid-stream.  Is anyone able to confirm
 that?

 it's currently placed, only makes sure that the first chunk is rewindable.
 This needs to be done for every subsequent chunk fetch as well. I dropped
 (or rather moved) that line and instead changed the while condition:
 > {{{
 >         while ((ret = ffio_ensure_seekback(s->pb, read_chunk -
 remaining) >= 0) && (ret = av_append_packet(s->pb, pkt, read_chunk -
 remaining)) >= 0) {
 > }}}

 > And suddenly, decoding the stream works perfectly (at least as far as I
 expect from any mpjpeg stream).
 This change also fixes ticket #5921.
