Is it the same memory leak problem as in the ts demux without audio?

	I can't review the patch but here some remarks made on irc:
	
	19:37 < nefrir> mmh the code style is wrong (ie not consistant)
	19:37 < funman> also the for (i=-1...) looks weird
	19:39 < nefrir> and the patch protects only against audio missing I
	think
	19:39 < nefrir> (his use case)
	19:40 < j-b> beurk at the patch then
	
	JPsaman could you have a look at it ?

Hello,

 

Yes, the memory leak bug came into play originally when audio was missing and that is what was patched.  It should also work if video is missing.  The rest of the services need to be patched as well.  However, it seemed to me that audio and video services were the only services referenced by the file.  Yes, I did create the patch to cover my use case as it makes use of only video and audio services.  I would encourage someone with more VLC knowledge than myself to revise/rewrite the patch or re-architect the module correctly.  I appreciate Rafaël for bringing attention to this issue as I would like this bug to be fixed correctly.  ;-)

 

Best Regards,
