Jean-Baptiste:

Here is the transport mux patch against the 1.0.3 release.  It works, but I
believe that I have made assumptions that may or may not be correct.  I
experienced the leak when I was capturing and encoding video from a USB
webcam and audio from a analog microphone.  When the webcam was present, but
the microphone was not the leak occurred, when both the webcam and
microphone were present then there was no leak.  I came up with this fix
back in September and I cannot quite remember the details of it's
implementation.  If I have made an incorrect assumption of if there is an
error, please let me know.  I will not be offended.  This fix has worked for
me on over 100 different machines running CentOS 5.3 for almost three months
now without incident.

Best Regards,
