Some explanation why Paul's ffmpeg patch can't be accepted now. Patch itself is fine, but Cinelerra (quicktime) assumes, that after every packet sent to video decoder returnd decoded frame. If decoder does not return frame, Cinelerra flags error and outputs a black frame. If frame has bigger resolution (HD) the probability to get error raises. Quick test showed that video decoded without problems with internal ffmpeg gave errors with later ffmpegs. Conclusion: parts of Cinellerra surrounding ffmpeg need careful rewriting and testing.
