[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] ffmpeg.c: Initializing uninitialized variables

[Chiranjeevi Melam]

Hi,
Most of these variables are set in static void do_audio_out(AVFormatContext *s,

If ffmpeg_exit() is called prior to calling do_audio_out, then it might try to do a free on an uninitialized variable. So the Changes  we made fixed the issue.

Thank,
Chiru

Static and globals don't need to be initialized in C.
