I wanted to address other issues in the implementation (such as
returning `VLC_EGENERIC` from `Open` after reading from the
*source-stream*), as well as other *integer-overflows* (though not as
severe as this one, it will "only" lead to distortion during
playback).

I am currently at the airport, but I can modify the original patch and
submit it before I board (just need to get something to eat first).

Best Regards,\
Filip
