Hum, would you explain this a little bit more.
Afaik -1 is returned when sequence that doesn't belong
to any known vlc is met.
This usually happens on broken streams.

Can you prove that wma vlc don't have invalid sequences?

At the moment the code checks explicitly for code==1 and breaks the loop.
You can change that with explicit check for code==0 and handle the EOB
and errors at once. the error then can be handled outside the loop.
Of course gcc won't be able to optimize <1 and ==1 compare into one, but ...
you know, checks are cheap, branches are expensive ;)
