Correct, mpeg4video decoding is some of the least understandable and undocumented code in the entirety of libavcodec. Decoding spans the following files in a completely crazy way: mpeg4videodec.c h263dec.c ituh263dec.c mpegvideo.c Lots and lots of undocumented heuristics: https://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavcodec/h263dec.c;h=eae29fa438e3b6b5adadbbe5d94363e2303ef7ee;hb=HEAD#l321 etc. I appreciate I have the benefit of hindsight but for example with DPCM there's no way to implement it without doing a block memcpy because of the weird abstraction.
