Here is another update of my patch for palettized QuickTime video in
Matroska.
Only read the first 86 - 16 (16 bytes are already read in
ff_mov_read_stsd_entries()) bytes into the 'stsd' variable in
mov_parse_stsd_video() in mov.c, since we are going to read the palette
from the file in ff_get_qtpalette() anyway. Remove the unnecessary
'size' parameter from mov_parse_stsd_video().
Original explanation of the patch follows:
Palettized QuickTime video in Matroska has hitherto not been recognized
whatsoever, and the "palette" used has been completely random.
The patch for matroskadec.c fixes this issue by adding a palette side
data packet in matroska_deliver_packet(), much in the same way as it's
done in mov.c.
The change to mov.c consists mainly of moving the palette handling from
the mov_parse_stsd_video() function to a new ff_get_qtpalette() function
in the new file qtpalette.c, which is shared by both matroskadec.c and
mov.c.
In matroskadec.c, I'm also putting the palette in 'extradata', like it's
done for V_MS/VFW/FOURCC; this is a requirement in order for MPlayer to
recognize the palette.
