Public bug reported:

ogmrip pipes a raw wav file into faac for audio encoding.

version 1.28+cvs20150510-1 of faac in 'wily' exits immediately in that
case leading to a video without audio.

version 1.28-0ubuntu2 of faac in 'precise' worked. I did not try the
intermediate ubuntu releases.

I looked at the code a bit and the attached patch solves it for me.


How to reproduce:

mkfifo /tmp/pipe.wav
oggdec -R -b 16 /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg -o 
/tmp/pipe.wav &
faac -P -R 48000 -C 2 -X -q 157 --mpeg-vers 4 -o /tmp/out.aac /tmp/pipe.wav

without my patch the faac immediately exits without encoding anything,
with my patch it encodes correctly.

Cheers,
Sebastian
