i set buffer to 1000 and it still fails with put_bits_left()
returning -19

what will fix this specific case is:
-        if (ret == 0x0f)
-            put_bits(&pb, 24, get_bits(&gb, 24));
+        if (ret == 0x0f) {
+            if (get_bits_left(&gb) >= 24+4+4)
+                put_bits(&pb, 24, get_bits(&gb, 24));
+        }


thx
