before writing a system based on a list of exceptions, please awnser the question which codec with a non-palette global header puts 40 there ? if the awnser is none then the existence of a palette in extradata is what decides the biSize value and a AV_CODEC_PROP_EXTRADATA_IS_PALETTE can then be added to the codecs affected. Thats alot cleaner than a list in riffenc which people will forget to update, especially if that list lists all the modern codecs which will grow instead of historic paletted codecs which will likely not grow much [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Rewriting code that is poorly written but fully understood is good. Rewriting code that one doesnt understand is a sign that one is less smart then the original author, trying to rewrite it will not make it better.
