[x264-devel] Memory Leak in x264/encoder/encoder.c

[devel at integra-sc.it]

Hi all, and congratulations for all your work.
Using the x264 encoder with ffmpeg library, in a loop cycle, 
opening/encoding/closing the codec and testing the code with valgrind, 
we have noticed a memory leak in the function:
void x264_encoder_close ( x264_t *h ).
We have tried to add  the following line before the end of the function:
x264_free( h->nal_buffer );
Attacched the pach, realized by Gennaro Gallo our developer.
Thanks for all.
Vito Covito.
