Hi

In source code there is reallocation of memory

  935     if ((len = s->expanded_text.len) > s->nb_positions) {
  936         if (!(s->positions =
  937               av_realloc(s->positions, len*sizeof(*s->positions))))
  938             return AVERROR(ENOMEM);
  939         s->nb_positions = len;

and I didn't found any initialization of positions, and we are using 
uninitialized position
in clip filter.

would it be ok to initialize just after allocating the memory.



Thanks
