I was going to say this can overflow but the 10LL ensures it can't. So
looks OK.

Please don't, as far as I see this disallows the usage of partial index
tables, so practically rejecting valid files, which is not OK.
can you share a file that would break ?
I don't have such file. But the MXF specs (SMPTE 377-1-2009) explictly
defines the concept of partial index tables:
"Where all Index Table segments are contiguous, or there is only one segment,
but not all Edit Units in the Essence Container are indexed, these tables are
called Partial Index Tables."
As far as I see here nb_index_entries is corresponding to the number of
indexed edit units, and the number is allowed to be smaller than the index
duration, because not all edit units have to be indexed.
I read the specs again, and it seems that I misread it the first time,
because partial index tables mean that the index segments have no gaps
between them, but the index still not cover the whole essence. So it is
not referring to the index entries in the segment.
So, in principal your patch *might* be OK. However, existing code simply
ignores a corrupt index table, does not reject it. I kind of prefer we
make the check more strict, but gracefully allow corrupted index by
ignoring it fully.
I will post a follow up patch series.

Marton
