[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 40/40] avcodec/h261dec: Make VLC smaller

[Andreas Rheinhardt]

The VLC for the macroblock address increment uses nine bits;
yet there is no code with this length: All codes are either shorter or
longer. So one can make the table smaller without changing the amount of
codes that need more than one round of parsing.
