[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Fix VC1 "Incomplete extradata" for mkv files generated by eac3to

[Andrew Dennison]

Some mkv files with VC-1 fail to play in mplayer reporting "Incomplete
extradata". Some investigation indicated the extradata was one byte
longer in the mkv file compared to the original HD-DVD .evo. It
appears that the extradata had a leading byte, equivalent to the size
byte of WVC1 however it was 0 and thus not skipped by the current
code.

With this simple patch against curent mplayer svn the original .evo
and converted .mkv both play. Conversion was performed with eac3to.
