Interesting fact:
ffmpeg -i JPEG-LS_error.avi -f image2 -vcodec copy %04d.jpg

will produce JPEGs that quite probably won't be handled by
anything else.

if you manually convert them with ffmpeg
ffmpeg -f image2 -i 0034.jpg -f image2 0034.png

then almost all of them will be converted correctly
AND there will be more frames (ffplay stops on globe view,
those pictures show also "A1" logo after that)

I don't understand why during conversion errors will be
NOT the same as during playback.

Another fact - resulting 0323.jpg will also contain 'JUNK'
block (I verified - it is really part of the frame and it
is not alone). OpenDML tricks?

Michael, what can you say about this?
