From 9f4cb3b340376d93be39dc97c2e0c631e9cf73c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carl Hetherington Date: Thu, 3 Jun 2021 22:55:44 +0200 Subject: Fix errors when seeking FFmpeg for some formats. The comments discuss this in a bit more depth, but basically we see errors from avcodec_send_packet after seek. ffplay etc. seem basically to ignore all errors from avcodec_send_packet, and I can't find a "proper" fix, so here's a half-way house hack: ignore some errors after seek.
