I can't see the original, but I assure mine looks very blurry (similar to
yours).
Besides, ffmpeg spits a lot of garbage in stderr, warning about bad parsing,
etc... All I have to do is stop one transmission, and everything is ok.
Moreover, if I save the decoder's streams in disk, I can playback them
properly, one at a time of course. I'll do more tests, though.

Yes, I realize, that's what's difficult about. I am pretty sure I have seen
static arrays being assigned, that *may* be context dependent.
I'll do my best.
