[XviD-devel] decode 0.9 stream with the latest

[Michael Militzer]

Hi,

unlike Xvid 0.9.x, which was simple profile only, the Xvid 1.x ASP decoder
can create a one-frame delay upon decoding of some streams. If your
stream contains just one frame and you obtain no result, it could be
that you simply suffer from this delay.

You could try decoding a 0.9.x stream with more than one frame for a test.
To decode your one-frame bitstream, you should try to call xvid_decore()
_again_ for a second time after your first call that gave no result. Set
xvid_dec_frame.bitstream=NULL and xvid_dec_frame.length=-1 for this
second call. That might return your picture.

Best regards,
Michael
