FF_DECODE_ERROR_CONCEALMENT_ACTIVE sounds right for the case that the
ret variable is set to zero (i.e. indicate the fact that there was an
error and it is concealed)
ret = ff_h264_execute_decode_slices(h);
if (ret < 0 && (h->avctx->err_recognition & AV_EF_EXPLODE))
goto end;
// set h->cur_pic_ptr->f->decode_error_flags here
ret = 0;
end:
