[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 4/5] avformat/wtvdec: Use smaller upper bound for buffer

[Andreas Rheinhardt]

Every code point in the BMP is representable with at most three bytes
in UTF-8 and every code point not in the BMP takes four bytes.
For each of the latter, the encoding of UTF-16 takes as many
bytes; for each of the former, it takes at most 3/2 as many.
Therefore one can decrease the size of the buffer allocated
here.
