Hi All,
I've found that my problem comes from the fact that h->param.rc.b_mb_tree is
set to 0.
Should this value be allowed to be 0?
Thanks,
David

I haven't ever explicitly used the --threads argument. so I have not seen
the issue you are experiencing. I have been able to duplicate it here with
those same arguments and foreman_cif.y4m. It's late here so I won't be able
to look at this any more tonight.
