[FFmpeg-devel] mpegvideo_parser outputs incomplete frames [with rough patch]

Ok, that makes sense.

I'd like to do this for ffmpeg.c but how can I detect this situation?
IMHO, the parser should not signal that all is well by filling in
s->pict_type = FF_I_TYPE;
for that first frame.
Maybe we could add FF_UNKNOWN_TYPE like in my wrong :-) patch
and then drop such frames in ffmpeg.c?
