Hi,
attached patch fixes ticket #4759 but I guess it is a bit too hasty to
always abort transcoding if a single frame cannot be written. I guess it
would be better to check for some "exit_on_error" like flag set but
couldn't find out how to achieve that.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Tobias

Is this really better than not writing anything?

(Sorry for the long delay in answering, I was caught by a flu last week.)
I want to transcode thousands of files and want to get some indication
from ffmpeg if the transcoding has been successful (all frames have been
transcoded) or not. Currently I am using the process exit code to verify
that.
There are two different user stories when using ffmpeg:
a) "process the input data and exit with error as early as possible in
case of errors/problems"
b) "process the input data and avoid exit with error as long as possible
in case of error/problems"
If I understand correctly I can basically switch between (a) and (b)
mode by passing the "-xerror" option to ffmpeg or not. So my plan is to
transcode all my files with "-xerror" and assume that >99% of the files
will pass. The small amount of failing ones can then be analyzed for
problems manually and possibly have a re-run without "-xerror".
Unfortunately the "-xerror" option affects only ffmpeg but not the
libraries, so I cannot use it do decide if "mxf_write_packet" should
return with an error when the video packet size doesn't match the CBR
constraints.

Tobias
